Research Strategies in Policy Studies Summer School 2017

We will focus on research design covering 5 topics: research design, quasi-experimental design, Bayesian case studies, QCA and multi-method research.

Moreover, participants will have the opportunity to discuss their own research projects with our faculty. This year's event promises to be another great ResPos Summer School, focused on research design. It will cover five topics (i.e., research design in policy studies, quasi-experimental design, Bayesian case studies, QCA and multi-method research). There will be 4 hours and half of lesson per da

y, granting participants enough time to understand each topic and make questions. Each lesson will be divided into 3 slots: 1. the general presentation of the approach; 2. technicalities and notation details; 3. application. Moreover, the ReSPoS Summer School 2017 will grant participants the opportunity to discuss their research projects with our faculty through a poster-session. In detail, each participant will be asked to summarize his/her research project in an A3 poster, specifying the topic, research questions, main hypotheses and the prospective empirical strategy (please, download the poster-template here). At the end of each day, participants will have the opportunity to show and discuss their posters with scholars in a 'Research projects - Speed Date'. Thus, the ReSPoS Summer School 2017 will include:
- The usual mix of not-mainstream (!) methods in policy studies;
- The opportunity to discuss your research project with well-established scholars and
- An ice-breaking social event on Monday evening (networking matters!).
