Research Seminar Media and Culture (2025/2026: periode 1)
Cursusdoel
After completion of the course the student has:
- knowledge of the research process of humanities scholars, and of scholars in media and culture studies in particular
After completion of the course the student will be able to:
- search for literature in a critical way, to situate literature within the field of research, and to report on this for a research project that will be independently designed and carried out
- identify research questions and methods in academic literature and critically relate to their findings for a research project that will be independently designed and carried out
- operationalize a research question for a research project that will be independently designed and carried out
- describe and justify a method for a research project that will be independently designed and carried out
- write a research proposal for a research project that will be independently carried out
Vakinhoudelijk
The course offers the student a systematic overview of the different steps of the research cycle in media and culture studies at an in-depth level.
In the working groups, students work on a research design that will form the starting point for the research conducted in their BA Thesis.
In addition, the students are working on a reading report about the field of research in which their BA thesis is situated. Together with the BA Thesis, this Research Seminar forms the final part of the program.
Students are assigned to a working group based on the specialisation package for which they are registered.
Students are strongly advised to follow the Research Seminar and the BA Thesis in consecutive blocks and, because of the perceived workload, not to combine the Research Seminar with an internship or with more than one other 7.5 EC course.
Students are advised not to register for courses that fall (partly) in the same time slots as the time slots in this course.
