What does it take to do academic research with the potential for high quality academic publications, be it papers in peer reviewed academic journals or a successful PhD thesis? The workshop aims at further improving the research skills needed for academic publishing, and takes an output oriented approach. Topics include: relating research and publishing, getting focus in the project, reviewing literature to find promising knowledge gaps, qualitative versus quantitative research, developing conceptual models, and designing an empirical study for both qualitative and quantitative research. Case material: your own research project. Note: An adapted version of this workshop has been successfully used to further improve the research designs of multiple PhD projects that are part of a large, multi-year project.
