Course objective is to familiarize students with methods for gathering and analysing experiential data, as well as training students for the application of different research procedures, drafting a research project, analysing and interpreting the gathered experiential data.
On the basis of acquired knowledge, students are trained for: independent development of the draft research project, application of different methods for gathering and analysing the experiential data, assessment of the quality of data that will be used in its future job. Apart from the above, course objective is also to enable students to independently use the existing original material and express themselves clearly in written form.

Lectures and practice classes. Theoretical and practical training will be organized through group and individual work, with the constant encouragement of dialogue and the practical application of acquired knowledge. With the aim of mastering research methods, various technical aids will be used during the course (e.g. video projector, recorder, etc.)
