Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

In this seminar, the students should learn how to plan and do empirical research. The students will work on their research projects. At the beginning of the class, the students will look for a research gap and think about possible group projects. In the second phase, the students will work on defining constructs and developing items for these. In the third phase, they will have to search for theories important to their topics. They will choose your topic, create research ques-tions, and develop a research design. Students can choose a topic within the broader field of journalism and/or political communication.
