There is a limited participation in this course and more advanced doctoral students are given the priority. The participants need to work on a full paper during the spring. The paper can be e.g. a conference paper, a journal article or a thesis essay. To be able to participate, the student needs to have completed empirical data collection to a large degree, and also have engaged in some analyses of this data. When signing in for the course, additional information is required: the year of enrolling into the doctoral studies, estimated time for graduation, the stage of data collection and analysis, as well as description of the paper under work during the spring.
