Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
The main goal of the seminar is for each student to develop a research proposal that can serve as the basis for the student’s MA-thesis. Students should have an idea what they want to work on but they should not yet have conducted their MA fieldwork (in individual cases, this may be acceptable).In five steps, students will be led to develop research questions, select the appropriate literature and theoretical perspectives, as well as methods, and to envision possible results, before completing their research proposals.There will be written assignments every time, which need to be presented in plenary or peer-group discussions. Critical discussions of your peers’ assignments are a necessary ingredient for successful completion.
Assessment and permitted materials
A mandatory seminar paper (research proposal) will count for 50% of the grade. The rest of the grade will be determined by short oral presentations and written assignments, as well as by course participation.
