French term

formation à la recherche

introduction to research / research foundations

A lot of post-grad courses include research seminars. I'd move away from a literal translation and try one of the above. Even "research (skills) seminar" could be a possibility to indicate that the course involves studying the skills of research, not the subject studied per se ...
