Om kursen
This course is one of the compulsory courses at the Graduate school Technology Management and Economics; it has been designed as the first course for the graduate students as it is a quite general introductory course followed by the Qualitative and Quantitative methods courses. We strongly recommend taking RTME before other mandatory courses.

- August 27,13-16

Objectives and learning outcomes:
As an introductory course for RTME aims at providing a basic understanding of research in terms of basic notions of research and the research process. The course also aims at preparing the doctoral student for life in academia, discussing some important aspects of being a researcher such as preparing a research project, participating in the academic debate and interacting with supervisors and other researchers. Finally the course aims at supporting the graduate student in the initial steps towards developing his/her individual research proposal.
