This course is part of the three curricula of the Master's Degree in Management. It aims at developing students’ research conceptualization, writing and understanding capabilities and at enriching their critical thinking and methodological skills. Through an introduction to research design, data collection and curation techniques, as well as to qualitative and quantitative analysis and modelling methods, the course allows master students to explore what it is like to do research in the management field and in the socio-economic sciences. Through case studies, hands-on interactive sessions and group works, students will face the concrete challenges and choices faced while doing research.
