The Erasmus Research Institute of Management (ERIM) organizes a virtual summer course on Necessary Condition Analysis (NCA). The four-day course is designed for PhD candidates and junior faculty who are aiming for publications in top journals. It starts on on Monday, June 15.
A necessary condition is a critical determinant of an outcome: if the condition is not in place the outcome will not occur. After successful completion of this online course you will be able to understand the logic of necessary conditions, understand why necessary conditions are important for (social) science and practice. You will also be able to identify and formulate necessary conditions in (your own) theory and identify and test necessary conditions in (your own) data sets and write a paper in which you use necessity logic and apply NCA.
