The Center for American Studies would like to invite you to participate in a certified weekend course with an American interdisciplinary scholar with degrees in six disciplines, Prof. James M. Donovan, titled "Academic Research: Tools, Arguments & Methodology".
There is no one-size-fits-all “academic research process” that works for everyone, nor is there a single type of academic research that is appropriate for all audiences.
While there is no substitute for experience and repetition, it is possible to find one's own style and rhythm for research, improve one’s research and academic communication skills, as well as broaden one’s own horizons through exploring different types of academic research and communication.
This is exactly what you'll learn during the "Academic Research: Tools, Arguments & Methodology" weekend course.
The course takes place on January 10 and January 11, 2025, on the intuitive Zoom platform.
Because the course is led by an open-minded interdisciplinary American scholar. Professor James Donovan is a guarantee of the course being ideal to all academics, regardless of discipline.
Moreover, the course is synchronous – contact in real time and an opportunity to ask questions will allow you to resolve any doubts you may have.
