The Mastery of Methods | Birte Karoline Manke | TEDxLeuphanaUniversityLüneburg

Can we talk about research methods and statistics without a lot of math, being boring and scaring people off? 22-year-old PhD-candidate Birte Manke surprises the audience by challenging the prejudices we have about research methods and statistics and shows why we should care about them.

Birte K. Manke is a 22 year-old PhD candidate at the Leuphana. Since her first day on campus, she knew that she wanted to be part of the knowledge creating process. Driven by immense curiosity she studied business psychology, political science, management and marketing, further, enriched her perspectives within subjects like philosophy, sociology and arts. Due to her distinct academic performance she was funded by the German National Academic Foundation. One of her greatest passions besides research is teaching, which she sees as a great responsibility and an opportunity to inspire people and change the world
