Summer School (University of Glasgow)

The ‘Summer School’ actually takes place in late spring, immediately following the end of Glasgow’s exam period. The programme has two main components: research methods training and the hugely successful College of Social Sciences Employability Programme.

The Employability Programme is a short 3-day programme, which will provide a comprehensive overview of careers and employability at Glasgow and support your professional development.

The research methods component provides practical opportunities to practice and discuss specific research methods and practices such as coding, focus groups, interviews, discourse analysis and survey design. These are essential research skills for dissertation research and it is expected that all students attend the research methods components of the Summer School.
