6th International Research Workshop: Methods for Ph.D.

The International Research Workshop "Methods for Ph.D." will give graduate students in the field of Social Sciences and Economics the opportunity to increase their knowledge in research with empirical data (e.g. the SOEP). The workshop will take place at Akademie Sankelmark near Flensburg/Germany and at the University of Southern Denmark in Sonderbug/Denmark. The workshop language will be English and/or German. Interested parties from all countries are invited.

The organisers encourages especially those graduate students to come to the workshop, who need training in the process of choosing a topic, grounding the research idea in theory as well as gathering data, analyzing them, and presenting results in scientific contexts.

The workshop tackles these steps of Ph.D. students research projects:

a) gathering data via (un)structured interviews and analyze standardized survey data (e.g. SOEP)
b) using the computer for content analysis and as a tool for statistics
c) writing a report and making presentations to share results

These steps will strengthen the cooperation in empirical research to boost and streamline ones project.
