Inhalte:
The module "Science" is designed to take a research-oriented perspective and to address very different facets of an overall topic of organizational research via an explicitly interdisciplinary focus. Within the framework of the interdisciplinary research project, a research question is worked on in a research group.
 
The work on the research project is complemented by the seminar "Research Design", which represents the second part of this module. In this course, participants are introduced to scientific models and methods of organizational research in order to apply them to their research questions. At the end of the course, participants will first be asked to motivate their research question based on the literature (scientific relevance, practical implications), identify the research gap, and explain the proposed research design (methodology) in a "Research Proposal".

Based on this "Research Proposal", the actual, detailed elaboration of the research question within the framework of the (group) research project then takes place. The findings of the respective analyses are first to be prepared by the students as presentations and, after intensive discussion, submitted in the form of written elaborations.
