Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

The students will learn how the main methods used in population studies are actually operated in research, covering a large range of practices in demography/population studies. The aim is to give them an overview of these methods and of when they are used, so that they can refine the choice of the methods they will use for their Ph.D. thesis.
During the first seminar we will introduce the families of methods and the topics that recurrently use them. Before each following seminar, students will read two texts in which one specific method is used and well described in order to get a sense of its application. The seminar will be participatory, including presentation by the students, the teacher, and discussions.
