PhD course on academic formats: monograph, article, kappe

This course explores the central formats relevant to the doctoral dissertation. The choice between the monograph and the article-based dissertation is of central concern for the doctoral candidate, and the article-based dissertation also demands mastery of the “kappe” format. Knowledge of the formats is not only relevant for the choice between the two, but also for the development of one’s competence and profile as researcher more generally.

This course presents the formats, communicates working experiences with them, and opens for reflection about what they suitable for.
