Methodenlehre an der Leuphana
Das Lehrangebot des Methodenzentrums richtet sich an Studierende aller Studiengänge und Ausbildungsstufen sowie Promovierende der Leuphana Universität Lüneburg. Die Veranstaltungen haben unterschiedliche Formate, um den vielfältigen Bedarfen gerecht zu werden. Um die Methodenausbildung an der Leuphana transparenter und übersichtlicher zu gestalten, arbeitet das Methodenzentrum aktuell an einer Übersicht aller methodenorientierten Lehrveranstaltungen der Universität.
Ausleihe
Wir verleihen voll-ausgestattete Moderationskoffer für die Methodenlehre. Schreiben Sie uns an oder kommen Sie einfach im Methodenzentrum vorbei, wo Sie den Koffer abholen können.

Reflecting on Research Methods
The module "Reflecting Research Methods" deals with the engagement with unrelated, unknown scientific methods. Together with students of different major, these methods are applied and reflected on with regard to ethical research questions and cross-disciplinary contexts of use. In addition, the possibilities and limits of familiar methods and specialist cultures will be reflected upon in a more foreign way, and specific methods will be used to create differences and connections. This also includes the examination of different concepts of interdisciplinary research. Since it is a matter of getting involved with methods from other disciplines, the module offers special events that encourage a change of perspective. This can be done, for example, by reflecting on methods on the basis of example fields that allow links to one's own degree programmes, but pursue a methodological perspective that is not already regularly offered in these degree programmes.
Ziel: This is a frame lecture, the purpose of which is to connect, compare, and unite the different seminars within the module.
Bachelor Thesis
This module supports you in the process of writing your bachelor thesis. While the lecture builds on a flipped classroom concept, it will be widely framed around the questions of the audience regarding the specific slots. The lecture thus helps you to find a topic, supervisors, and how to communicate with them. You will get input on time management, how to tame a topic, define research questions of hypotheses, research literature, and write a glossary. An additional emphasis will be set un creating methodological designs, pitfalls of research, and establishing a routine. We also give you help on how to overcome writer's block, norms and standards of science, and how to submit and defend your thesis. All individual steps will also be discussed more hands on in the tutorials.
Ziel: Vorlesung, Tutorium sowie der moodle-Kurs zielen darauf ab, den Prozess des Schreibens der Bachelor-Arbeit in allen Phasen von Beginn an bis zur Abgabe der BA-Thesis zu begleiten.
GOAL

Research Seminar in Economics
Vorträge zu laufenden Forschungsarbeiten von Promovierenden und Wissenschaftlern des Instituts sowie von auswärtigen Gästen.
Die Referenten sollten möglichst min. eine Woche vor dem Vortrag ihr Papier an Boris Hirsch schicken, der es dann für alle Teilnehmer zugänglich in MyStudy hochladen wird. Hierdurch sollen tiefergehende Diskussionen der Papiere ermöglicht werden.
* im Seminarplan: Externe Gäste, mit denen wir vermutlich am Dienstagabend Essen gehen werden, wozu alle Interessierten gerne mitkommen können (Info bei Boris Hirsch).
Ziel: Kolloquium (Vortrag) im Rahmen des Promotionskollegs VWL gem. §6 Abs. 4
Quantitative Research Methods (for M&SAaF)
Main topics and learning objectives:
Core element of the course is to learn how to use databases and statistical software in order to enable students to conduct their own empirical analyses. At the same time, students learn important statistical methods and practice them by applying the learned concepts to practical examples. The lecture is supplemented with presentations and discussions of the methodological background of current research projects.
Ziel: At the end of this course, the student is able to
1. Understand and apply advanced econometric models for longitudinal data (repeated measures over time) and cross-sectional data (measured at one point in time) and basic panel data.
2. Use ordinary least squares (OLS) regression and beyond.
3. To use general purpose statistical program Stata and to write and use Stata do-files to run these models
4. To understand the mathematical derivation of some of these models
5. To report the outcomes of econometric analyses in a scientific report
