The Research Centre of the Faculty of Economics cordially invites you to a research seminar on Tuesday, 30th August 2016 at 1 p.m. in room P-119 at the Faculty of Economics, University of Ljubljana.
Author: Kevin Desouza, School of Public Affairs at Arizona State University
will present the article:
“Challenges in Inter-Disciplinary Research: Strategies from Crafting Research Ideas to Publishing”
“Studying complex phenomenon requires us to undertake research that (1) draws on multiple disciplines, (2) engages a diverse group of stakeholders, (3) appreciates a plurality of research approaches, and (4) communicates to a diverse set of audiences. Executing inter-disciplinary research is no easy feat to accomplish. Researchers face daunting challenges from the onset, beginning with the inception of ideas, then continuing to the crafting of problem statements, executing the research process, and communicating the results via publications in academic and practitioner outlets. However, these challenges should not be viewed as an excuse to abandon inter-disciplinary research in favor of narrow-minded and singular research exercises, which reduce complex phenomenon in deterministic fashions so as to arrive at simplistic problems that lack relevance. In his presentation, prof. Desouza will share his experiences in executing inter-disciplinary research projects. He will present a method (process) for executing inter-disciplinary research that has served him well. Illustrative examples of research projects will be used to exemplify the process and outline strategies for researchers to consider when conducting inter-disciplinary research projects.”
You can register for the free seminar by phone (01) 58-92-490, or via e-mail: research.seminars@ef.uni-lj.si by Monday, 29th August 2016.
