This semester, the Department of Information Systems once again had the pleasure of welcoming Dr. Nathalie Mitev as part of the Visiting International Professor (VIP) Program of the School of Business and Economics. Since 2015, she has been an integral part of our international academic community and has been coming to Münster twice a year to teach doctoral seminars.

This semester, she led the seminar “Qualitative Research Methods,” in which participants explored various qualitative research methods as well as approaches to data collection and were able to apply them to their own dissertation projects.

Dr. Nathalie Mitev is currently affiliated with Université Paris Dauphine – PSL in France. She teaches master’s and doctoral students at universities around the world, particularly in the areas of qualitative research methods and academic writing. Her research focuses on information systems management and digital organizational change.

At the end of the seminar, the doctoral students took the opportunity to thank Dr. Mitev for her great commitment. Despite high temperatures and considerable travel delays, she once again made the journey to Münster to share her expertise with the participants. Dr. Mitev said she was “very touched” by the gesture. With the gift, the doctoral students expressed their appreciation for her many years of dedication and her committed teaching.
