The philosophy of Case Studies is that the best way to learn how to research is to do research. Students conduct, under the supervision of faculty, their own research projects, culminating in the writing of a research paper. Lectures will be given on a selection of topics that can prove useful in research.

Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion, students will have the knowledge and skills to:

  1. formulation of research objective
  2. execution of a research agenda to adress the research objective
  3. a demonstration of your competency in the research methods your objective mandates
  4. writing a research paper
  5. presentation of the research project
