The first Winter School in Methods and Techniques (WSMT) is now being held at the University of Vienna and registration is open!




The University of Vienna was founded in 1365 and is the oldest university in the German-speaking world and one of the largest in Central Europe. Vienna is an iconic historical city, rich in architectural ensembles, including Baroque castles and gardens, grand buildings, monuments and parks. The city is also known for its numerous museums, theatres and its opera. On the other hand Vienna also is a great place for shopping and having a night out. There are innumerable bars, pubs and clubs within easy reach. If you don't want to explore Vienna on your own we expect to offer a comprehensive social programme.

The Winter School will be an annual event that is complementary to the ECPR's Summer School and there will be a loyalty discount for participants who wish to take part in the 3 step programme at both of these schools, for further details click here.






The comprehensive programme consists of introductory courses and advanced courses, in a one-week format, suitable for advanced students and junior researchers in political science and its adjacent disciplines. There will also be the opportunity to participate in one of the software training courses.






Intermediate-level courses will continue to be held at the 2012 Summer School in Methods and Techniques in Ljubljana, in either one two-week or two consecutive one-week courses.
