This course on qualitative and quantitative research methods will provide a general introduction about 1) methodological underpinnings of research methods 2) research designs 3) different forms of methods and field analysis 4) modelling and simulation and finally about 5) the combination of quantitative and qualitative approaches. The course focuses on differences and similarities in both methods. Moreover, we discuss quality assessment and possibilities of potential synthesis among different approaches in a fruitful manner.
On the one hand, students will get introduced into contemporary discourses on methods by carrying out and presenting literature reviews. On the other hand, they will experiment with some basic examples from field analysis and modelling/simulation (Computational Social Science), thereby building foundational knowledge for a further applied deepening in the winter term.
After successful completion of this introduction, studentswill be able to:
-
understand different research methods and strategies
-
know how to draft various tools for empirical analysis
-
differentiate between a variety of top-down and bottom-upmodelling techniques in economics
-
acquire basic programming skills for agent-based modelling
-
work with a simulation tool-kit and generate computationalexperiments with given models
-
write a criticalreflection on quantitative and qualitative methods
