IBAE Bachelor Colloquium (Kolloquium)

Inhalt: In this colloquium for IBAE students in the 6th semester, students will be made familiar with the processes of scientific research and academic writing. They will receive guidance on how to narrow down their problem focus, how to search for pertinent literatures, how to do key methodological choices, and how to discuss their findings and theoretical contributions against the background of the existing literature. The colloquium will feature a mix of useful tips&tricks from the lecturer as well as student presentations of their work-in-progress bachelor theses.

Philosophy of Social Science (Complementary Studies) (Seminar)

Dozent/in: Markus Reihlen, Dennis Schoeneborn

Inhalt: This course provides you with insights into how to do more engaging and useful research. So what can philosophy contribute to social science? The answer is straightforward: it helps to construct more interesting research problems by challenging taken-for-granted assumptions. The philosophy of social science raises fundamental questions relevant to the practicing researcher, such as what is the nature of social phenomena? Should we see organizations as accumulations of autonomous individuals, collective actors with goals of their own, or systems embedded into society? What is the appropriate form of investigation? Should we rely on empirical facts, on our reason, on action, or on intuition? Can we investigate society by studying individuals or via their social structures? What values and norms of social actions are appropriate? Should we see the individual's freedom (maximization of individual benefit) or his/her responsibility to the community at large (maximization of collective benefit) as the primary goal of social action? This course blends specific perspectives from the philosophy of social science with controversies in social studies. Our use of the term social studies is broad; it includes all disciplines that study social systems of different kinds and of different levels such as economics, sociology, political science, culturology, social psychology, and the respective socio-technologies such as management. This course will enable students to explain how philosophy could contribute to the improvement and interestingness of social research. More specifically, students will be made familiar with general philosophical controversies in social science such as individualism versus holism, idealism versus materialism, the positivism versus postmodernism debates. Finally, we address the relation between science and praxis and reflect upon the different statuses of science and technology.
