Research Design II RMA Gender

Course goals

Content

This interdisciplinary module continues to covers advanced academic skills to be developed at the Research Master level, such as refinement of acquired research methodologies, writing of academic texts (in particular the seperate chapters of RMA thesis chapters), presenting original research and giving academic feedback to peers. The seminar aims to offer a research environment in which students can reflect on their research topic at a meta-discursive level, with special emphasis placed on methodological issues and theoretical perspectives. This course also helps students in their future careers by learning to communicate their research findings in both academic and non-academic contexts and to increase the societal significance of their research. This seminar also serves as a productive discussion space in which RMA and GEMMA students can connect with one another on academic issues and challenges.
