This course consists of an individual research project or diploma work. There will be an introduction to the course on campus, 10.00-16.00, January 18. You should have perused the guidelines for the course and ordered the course literature before this meeting. The guidelines and other resources will be available on your course page in Canvas two weeks before the course starts. Please note that the topic of your thesis is chosen in consultation with your supervisor and that it must be in line with the guidelines. These are full-time studies, and you must be prepared to devote a lot of time and effort to your diploma work.
Make sure you order the course literature in good time before the term starts. We will use Akademiskt skrivande (Blomström & Wennerberg 2021) and Forskningsmetodikens grunder: Att planera, genomföra och rapportera en undersökning (Patel & Davidson) as well as HSFR’s Forskningsetiska principer i humanistisk-samhällsvetenskaplig forskning (available online) and APA’s References (available online). Any other literature is decided upon in consultation with your supervisor.
Communication
It is important that you register for the course in Ladok as soon as registration opens. This will give you access to our course page in Canvas two weeks before the course starts. Canvas will be our main digital channel for communication, and this is where you will find material about our course such as the timetable, instructions, assignments, etc.
Apart from the introduction and the final discussion seminar, all seminars will be on Zoom. The link will be posted on Canvas. To participate in the online meetings, you must make sure you have a well-functioning headset with a microphone instead of the microphone on the computer only, as well as a good camera.
