This year's Summer School in Methods and Techniques will take place between the 28 July and 13 August. Registration is now open, so visit the ECPR website before the 30 March to secure your first choices and take advantage of the Early Bird discount. Part of the ECPR's acclaimed Methods School, the Summer School offers state of the art methods training across the full range of methodologies, paradigms and approaches. The unique format of the Summer School means that students can choose not only from a wide range of courses, but a number of course formats also. Whether you need a quick refresher in a particular skill set, in-depth training in a new methodology, or both, you can create a bespoke programme to suit precisely your needs. The 2016 school will give students a choice from 15 intensive refresher courses; 13 main courses focusing on research design; three on data collection; and 24 on data analysis. Each course is taught by an expert in the field and some are supported by a dedicated teaching assistant. The host for the 2016 Summer School will be Central European University in Budapest where students will find a range of excellent facilities within which to take their courses. With two UNESCO World Heritage Sites within the city, and a vibrant cultural scene, Budapest will provide the perfect backdrop to the intensive study and vibrant, collegial atmosphere of the Summer School. In order to make the Summer School as accessible for students and young scholars as possible, the course fees will remain at 2015 rates. Participants from ECPR member universities can take advantage of up to €200 off their total fees with the Early Bird discount, which is double the discount from 2015! If you are from a member institution, you can also apply for funding from the ECPR (now open). If you have previously attended either the 2016 Winter School in Bamberg or the 2015 Summer School in Ljubljana you will also qualify for an additional €50 discount. For more information about the Summer School and how it could benefit your studies and career, see the ECPR website or contact Becky Plant (methodsschool@ecpr.eu). Key dates for this event: 30 March – Deadline for Early Bird discount 29 April – Deadline for funding applications 15 June – Course confirmation deadline 30 June – Deadline for registrations The ECPR is committed to developing the next generation of political scientists. Alongside the Methods School, the ECPR also organises a biennial Graduate Student Conference and supports a Graduate Student Network. These events and activities aim to enhance and develop the careers of students and young scholars across the world through a mix of expert training, practical experience and international networking.
