This semester, our Master seminar is supported by University Quality Funds (SQM). All topics available this semester include a literature review part and an empirical part. The empirical part will be qualitative (interviews or focus groups). With the help of SQM, we can offer students the following additional benefits:
Workshops on empirical research: Students will receive extensive training in collecting and analyzing qualitative data in two workshops.
Transcription software: Students receive access to transcription software in order to simplify and accelerate transcribing interview/ focus group data.
