Description
Kursen består av två delkurser med syfte att ge en djupare förståelse för hela forskningsprocessen inom humanistiskt orienterade Europastudier:
- Vetenskapsteoretiska grunder och forskningsmetodik (15 hp)
- Examensarbete (15 hp).
I delkurs 1 presenteras de viktigaste vetenskapsteorierna som har relevans förhumanistiskt orienterade Europastudier. Bland dessa teorier ingår t.ex. hermeneutik,konstruktivism, positivism. Ontologiska och epistemologiska aspekter av vetenskaplig forskning så som t.ex. skillnaderna mellan deduktivt och induktivt förhållningssätt diskuteras. I delkurs 1 introduceras också forskningsmetoder som kan tillämpas i kandidatuppsatsen. Bland dessa metoder ingår t.ex. fallstudier, narrativ undersökning,intervjuer, opinionsundersökningar, textanalys och diskursanalys. Hur en forskningsprocess ser ut kommer också att belysas.
Delkurs 2 består av att den studerande författar ett examensarbete i form av en kandidatuppsats inom området humanistiskt orienterade Europastudier. Val av uppsatsämne sker med utgångspunkt i den studerandes tidigare studier och i samråd med handledaren. Examensarbetet ska demonstrera den studerandes förmåga att, i utsatt tid, genomföra ett forskningsarbete, från problemformulering till färdig analys.
Note!
The course is not open for applications through antagning.se / universityadmissions.se next semester. Please contact the department for more information!
How to apply
Lund University uses a national application system run by University Admissions in Sweden. It is only possible to apply during the application periods: October–January for autumn semester and June–August for spring semester.
Extended application deadline
Sometimes the application deadline is extended for a specific programme or course. In these cases you will find the message "open for late application" by the programme/course information on universityadmissions.se. You apply with the usual application steps. As long as this message is showing, it is possible to apply, but late applications are processed in order of date, so it is still important to apply as soon as possible. Please note that if the programme/course does not have an extended deadline, it is not possible to apply late.
First or Second Admission Round?
All international students are encouraged to apply to the First admission round. This round takes place many months before the start of a semester and gives students the time they need to pay their tuition fees, apply for and receive their residence permit (if required), find housing, etc.
The Second admission round is an alternative for students from EU/EEA countries as they do not need a residence permit. Non-EU/EEA students will most likely not have enough time to obtain their permit before the start of the semester. However, even EU/EEA students are advised to apply during the First admission round, as some programmes can be applied for only in the January round. Also, this provides applicants with an admission decision much earlier, which is helpful in making decisions about their studies.
Tuition Fees
Non-EU/EEA citizens
Citizens of a country outside of the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland are required to pay tuition fees. You pay one instalment of the tuition fee in advance of each semester.
