Method Project
Students admitted to Master's Programme Fall 2024.
The method project course is based on the students' experiences of method applications from the course Methodology II. This means that teaching and exercises are partly individualized with a varying focus on quantitative and qualitative methods. The course provides skills in research design with a focus on how different methods, theories and empirical materials can be combined. The students carry out pilot studies based on a coherent research design they have formulated themselves.
Teaching takes place in the form of tutorials, exercises and seminars. Method exercises and seminars are course requirements.
For a passing result on the course, the student must be able to show:
- in-depth knowledge of research design and central methodological issues within media research
- advanced ability to apply at least two different methods in media studies
- ability to be critical of different methodological applications and the scientific knowledge they produce
