HOW-TO GENDER STUDY

Methods and Practices in Gender Studies

This track is organized as a three-day course by Mirjam Fischer and Esto Mader, who work on a mixed-methods research project studying inequalities in the academic labor market. Using examples from their ongoing work, they will provide students with different methodological angles as they may be applied in critical research design in Gender Studies. One session by Esto Mader will focus on qualitative methods and mixed-method designs. Mirjam Fischer will give another session on critical quantitative research. Students who do not have any prior experience with either qualitative or quantitative research are welcome, as the track will include a general orientation in both methodological domains. In the third session, students will be able to present their own work in order to obtain tailored feedback on their research design and methodology from peers and teaching staff. The track will take place as part of a wider summer school with German-language panels and workshops. A list of readings will be provided after the acceptance to the course.
