Aims
In this seminar, students will be asked to analyze a current practice or problematic in human resource management by crossing two approaches:
1- a theoretical approach based on a documentary search and a synthesis of research results gathered on the topic
2- an empirical approach based on a personal investigation (using interviews, questionnaire survey or documentary analysis) inside organizations concerned by this topic
By doing this, this seminar aims at developing the following generic abilities:
1- Searching academic documentation and taking theoretical distance about a human problematic in organization.
2- Collecting relevant information and analyzing, by the means of a theoretical framework, a concrete case of firm.
3- Structuring and communicating orally and in writings results of a personal investigation
4- Developing an overview of research methods used in organizational behavior and personnel psychology.
