<p class="default"><span class="apple-style-span"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">A 2-week intensive course in discourse analysis for MA/PhD students in the social sciences, history, health, education, law, politics, language and
communication and any other field connected with social practice. The course provides a colourful pallet of approaches to advance your academic skills by ‘doing research with discourse analysis’. </span></span><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Through examples of transdisciplinary research design you learn to reason why and how to incorporate discourse analysis
in your own field of study. The course provides a framework to make sense of social phenomena on the principle that language not only reflects society and change but also drives it. The focus is on analysing language use and other forms of communication to
generate evidence of social phenomena, such as racism, politics, power, law, teaching, peace or war, (in)equality, empowerment and collaboration. We offer an inspiring program with expert l<span class="apple-style-span">ecturers from the VU Communication and
Information Sciences and Organisation Discourse, and guests from <i>Fribourg University</i> and two leading centres of Critical Discourse Studies at</span> <i>Lancaster University</i>, the <i>University of East Anglia</i>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
