Omschrijving	MRP provides students with a practical seminar learning environment in which students will be introduced to the practice of inquiry and research methods in International Relations. The module will introduce students to methodological debates within the social sciences, research design, and research operationalization. Students will have the opportunity to explore a variety of methodological approaches and practical applications. The seminars will take the form of group-based methods workshops in which students will be expected to carry out research projects and communicate their research findings in a range of formats. MRP aims to give students a strong foundation in applied research methods and skills that are transferable across a wide range of research careers. Groups of (ideally) two students will be formed in the first session. They will serve as research units for the expert interview and the MRP paper.
