Lehrveranstaltungen

Applied Quantitative methods A (Seminar)

Dozent/in: Sarah Engler

Termin:
 wöchentlich | Donnerstag | 12:15 - 13:45 | 06.04.2026 - 10.07.2026 | C 12.107 Seminarraum

Inhalt: !!! Only for students of the second and fourth semester!!! Students of higher semesters should take the course by Dr. Kseniya Kisilova ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Knowledge on research methods is essential for students of any empirically oriented social science. In the study of political science, an understanding of statistical data analysis is necessary not only for conducting analysis but also for understanding a significant proportion of the empirical political science literature. This course introduces students to research designs, quantitative methods and data analysis in empirical political science research. The seminar covers topics ranging from the first formulation of a theoretical argument to empirical testing thereof. We will use the statistical program STATA for the sessions on data management and statistical analysis.

Applied Quantitative methods B (Seminar)

Dozent/in: Sarah Engler

Termin:
 wöchentlich | Donnerstag | 14:15 - 15:45 | 06.04.2026 - 10.07.2026 | C 12.108 Seminarraum

Termin:
 wöchentlich | Montag | 14:15 - 15:45 | 06.04.2026 - 10.07.2026 | C 12.009 Seminarraum

Inhalt: As quantitative data play an increasingly important role in academia and beyond, developing strong data literacy and quantitative research skills is essential. This course combines theoretical models with empirical research to deepen our understanding of politics empirically. The class is structured into two blocks. The first block will begin with input from the lecturer on research design, covering key aspects such as formulating a research question, developing a theoretical argument, deriving testable hypotheses, and measuring concepts. The second block will focus on statistics, with input from the lecturer and practical guidance on implementing research design concepts and testing them using the statistical software STATA. Additionally, this block includes STATA exercises that provide students with hands-on experience with data management and statistical analysis to conduct their own analyses and interpret the results.
