Research Methods within Working Life Science
15.0 ECTS creditsThe course covers two areas: methodology and method. These areas are review and analyzed in relation to their significance to the research process and, in effect, the research outcome. The course includes practical elements in relation to the application of qualitative and quantitative methods, but also theoretical and analytical elements as regards different types of methodological approaches. Special emphasis is attached to relating these areas to each other and thereby establish a more extensive and intensive understanding of a central component of the production of knowledge within working life science.
Instruction is in the form of lectures, classes, seminars, laboratory assignments, and croup exercises.
The course is a collaboration with the University of Borås, University of Gothenburg, and Halmstad University, which means that some lectures and seminars might be located outside Karlstad. In addition, part of the course may be in the form of distance learning.
