Now in its fourth year, the ECPR’s Winter School in Methods and Techniques will take place at the Bamberg Graduate School of Social Sciences from 2015. Part of the ECPR’s Methods School, the annual Winter School provides cutting-edge courses in the full span of qualitative and quantitative topics. Delivered by a diverse range of experienced Instructors and supported by dedicated Teaching Assistants, the academic side of the School is designed to provide young scholars with the methodological skill set they need at the start of the career, while an exciting plenary programme provides an opportunity for all important networking.
Offering introductory and advanced classes, the course content of the Winter School is designed to complement its sister event, the ECPR Summer School in Methods and Techniques, which currently takes place in Ljubljana, Slovenia, every July/August. Participants who have completed a course at the 2014 Summer School may wish to consider extending their studies to an advanced course in Bamberg. Not only will they benefit from a continuation in the expert teaching they received in Ljubljana, but will also receive a course loyalty discount in Bamberg.
