300695 (BGHS: Research Class) (S) (WiSe 2026/2027)

This course is intended for doctoral students whose projects are no longer in the early stages but who would like to briefly present their research designs once more. This semester, we will focus primarily on the theoretical framework—that is, the central concepts and approaches underlying your individual dissertation project. To this end, you are encouraged to bring a paper of your own on your theoretical framework and to discuss it together with your peers.
The outline of the class is jointly discussed on the first meeting
