PhD Course
The Empirical Research Cycle
Course Description: In this course the participants will work on designing their own research project from the specific perspective of empirical research. PhD researchers who are not planning to conduct empirical research in their own project can use the course to explore the possibility of adding an empirical component to their project without conducting the empirical research, while PhD researchers who are already planning to conduct empirical research can use the course to take their research design to a higher level. As such, the course aims to provide participants with an in-depth introduction to this type of research and to assist them in making decisions about setting up empirical legal research.
Prior Requirements: At the beginning of the course, participants are expected to have a preliminary idea for an empirical legal study that they would like to work on during the course.
When: Starts on 3 February and ends on 17 February (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 17 February)
