Understanding the framework for scientific thinking and inference as well as the processes for the development of the scientific research will establish the particular focus of the course.

We will than continue with plagarism and ethics issues in scientific research. In this course we will also focus on how to make scientific inference. The analysis of descriptive and causal inference will be followed by different types of research. We will than move to issues of research question, literature review, hypothesis formulation and research design. In the final two weeks of the course, through the examination of actual resarch projects, we will be able to evaluate the formulation of scientific thinking as well as the development of research processes in scientific articles
