Research methods in education management

Collect, analyse and present empirical data

What do customers want? How satisfied are employees and what open needs are there? In order to use the answers for management or marketing decisions, surveys must be methodologically sound. The Research Methods module teaches you how to collect, analyse and present empirical data independently. Both qualitative and quantitative methods are covered. Participants learn how to design and analyse questionnaires, group discussions and interviews. Forms of presentation are taught in order to prepare and communicate the data professionally.
