,Lecture 1 – 3-9 – research methods in international
studies
Why do we have this course?

- Understanding and conducting research are key components of the BA International Studies
programme.
o Research is the foundation (understand, conduct it, practical experience)
- This course is designed with key questions that students often have about research.
- It is a crash course in methods and methodology.
o Newman: methods = the collection of specific techniques we use in a study to select
cases, measure, and observe social life, gather and refine data, analyze data and
report on results.
o Newman: methodology = understanding the entire research process including its
social organizational context, philosophical assumptions, ethical principles, and the
political impact of new knowledge from the research enterprise.
- This course is about raising the level of your understanding of research and your ability to
conduct research better, more independently, and earlier in the programme.
- Specifically, the aim is threefold:
o To provide an understanding of the philosophical assumptions behind doing
academic research.
o To equip students with key practical strategies and techniques for different types and
processes of data collection, analysis, and interpretation.
o To merge theory and practice by having students design, conduct, and write-up a
small research project.

- 6 seminar sessions: typically weeks 37, 38, 41, 44, 45, and 49 (but check your seminar
syllabus).
- The general lectures are for all students and are meant to provide an overview of academic
research, the logic and limitations of qualitative and quantitative methods, and the basics of
research design (broad, general foundation).
o Lecture 1—Research Methods in International Studies
o Lecture 2—Research Design: Basic Steps and Philosophical Considerations
o Lecture 3-–Research Design: Conceptualisation and Operationalisation Issues
- While the lectures offer a general foundation, the seminars build on this foundation by

researcher. (Lectures (#2))

methods research. (Lectures (#3))
