Don't miss this

Practical information

Although it is perhaps the most important step in the empirical research cycle, the literature on conducting empirical research devotes little attention to the research question. In this session, presentations on formulating an academically relevant research question and positioning it in a paradigmatic field will be followed by exercises in which you can apply the content to your own Ph.D. Study.

LEVEL: Basic

METHOD: Qualitative and quantitative
