Virtual Summer School

Tackle your research with confidence

2 – 20 August 2021
  #ecprvms21

We’re delighted to announce that our next Summer School will be held virtually, from 2–20 August 2021.  

Offering a comprehensive virtual programme of courses on variance-based, case-based and interpretive methods and techniques, our Virtual Methods School allows you to select and combine courses to meet the demands of your project. The result? A rounded training experience giving you the tools you need need to tackle your research with confidence.

How it works

  • A three-week programme
  • Expertly selected courses perfectly tailored to suit the digital environment
  • 10+ hours of live class per course, plus pre-recorded content, readings, social spaces and more

What to expect

Over 80% of our Virtual Methods School courses sold out, so make sure to book your seat early!

  • Top-tier pedagogy from our handpicked Instructors
  • Mixture of formats designed to maximise your learning experience
  • Pre-recorded content gives you flexibility and convenience to learn at your own pace
  • Smaller class sizes for enhanced 1-2-1 interaction with your Instructor and Teaching Assistants
  • Opportunity to share your specific research dilemma with fellow participants and get feedback
  • Exciting social events and a plenary programme, including lunchtime debates and academic networking sessions
  • If you work or study at an ECPR full member institution, you could get funding to help you attend the Virtual Winter School. Funding opportunities will be available soon.
  • If you applied for funding, you have to register but must not pay until you've heard about the outcome of your application.
  • Earn credits and gain certification, just like you would at a face-to-face Methods School
