Call for Proposals - Higher Education Research Training Institute (HERTI) Methods and Theories of Qualitative and Quantitative Investigation, 2007 Session, 14- 28 April 2007, Accra, Ghana

Recognizing the difficulties associated with formulating research proposals that coherently link problems, objectives, methodology, planned activities and budget, and translating research results into policy instruments, the Association of African Universities (AAU) launched the Higher Education Research Training Institute (HERTI) Workshop Series. The HERTI aims at exposing young academicians, lecturers and post graduate students to generic social science research skills including quantitative and qualitative research methodologies; higher education research theories and concepts; data management and analysis; report writing; policy development and preparation of briefs; and research proposal writing. The HERTI is also intended to allow participants the opportunity to critically discuss their proposed research and revise their proposals based on feedback from their peers and workshop Resource Persons. 

Applications are invited from interested participants (lecturers, post-graduate students, etc.) in AAU member institutions. (For the list of AAU member institutions, see the AAU Website: www.aau.org/membership/) The workshop will take up to 25 participants. Selection will be based on: (a) background and qualification of applicant; (b) quality of research proposal or paper; and (c) their fit with the theme and selected proposals. Other considerations will include gender, linguistic and geographic balance. 

Deadline: February 16, 2007.  Contact: research at aau.org.
