Abstract

The course offers an introduction to the practice of social scientific research on a graduate level. Considering the interdisciplinary character of the MA program and the diverse background of the student body, the course aims to familiarize students with international standards of linking empirical and conceptual approaches, data-collection, academic writing, and communicating research results.2nd year: The core objective of the course is to facilitate the thesis writing of second-year MA students, building on the skills and knowledge acquired in the first year of their program. The first two sessions offer a practical orientation on the fine-tuning of research questions and the logistics of MA thesis research (writing process, data-collection, etc.). Second stage of the course (sessions 4-6), students will present their MA thesis research, and discuss the projects in a workshop format.
