The University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) and Robert Gordon University are hosting a hermeneutic phenomenology methodology course (8^th – 12^th July, 2019).  The course is aimed at postgraduate research students, researchers and academics working within health and social care areas who are new/novices in this theoretical and methodological approach.

 

During the course, participants will receive an introduction to, and beginning experience in, designing hermeneutic phenomenology studies, collecting and analysing data, and reporting themes, qualities and patterns.

 

Learning outcomes for this course:

• Appreciation of the background into the philosophical underpinnings of hermeneutic phenomenology

• Gain insights into key philosophical notions described by key philosophers (Heidegger, Gadamer, etc.) and how these can be applied within health and social care research

• How to design and conduct hermeneutic phenomenology research

• How to collect data for hermeneutic phenomenology

• How to analyse, interpret, and report data (theses/dissertations and publications) in a way that is congruent with this methodology
