About the course
Ethnography is a qualitative method with its origins in cultural and social anthropology, although in recent years it has become increasingly popular among scholars in many other disciplines in the social sciences and humanities. The aim of this course is to discuss and practice ethnography and other anthropological/ethnological methods. During this ten-week-course, we combine practical exercises with reading texts on research methodology. After the course you will know how to do ethnography in a comprehensive way, and appreciate its endless possibilities.
