*What have past participants said*
/'This was my first course with the ECPR Methods School, and based on my
experience I do not think it will be the last. It was extraordinary on
all levels: academic, professional and social. The amount of knowledge I
gained was by far very significant. Although the material was not easy,
I was able to enjoy it and credit goes to the instructors. /
/I got to meet and chat with several scholars and young professionals.
The exchange of ideas and the collaboration spirit were commendable. As
for the social level, it was by all measures a blast. I made friends,
good friends, and most importantly, life-long friends and I will never
forget the amazing moments I spent with them. I am sure all this did not
happen by chance. Thus I am grateful for the organising committee, they
did a great job.' /
