Methods Camp

The method camp is a workshop for bachelor’s and master’s students to reflect and discuss their empirical research project with their peers.

The camp is exclusively directed at students who are actively working on an empirical research project (e.g. student papers, final theses) and might have questions about its realization.

Decoration

 In the methods camp you’ll get

  • a space to reflect and discuss your research design or concept.
  • support when it comes to posing questions to your supervisor or lecturer
  • the possibility to exchange experiences with research methods among other participants and the CTL student staff

Be aware that the methods camp does not serve as an introduction to the basics of empirical research nor as a consultation on specific methods. Neither is the camp a replacement for the council of your supervisor.
For instructions on the research methods of your discipline please check the university's course catalogue.
