Intro Research Dsgn

Catalog description

The purpose of this course is to become familiar with a variety of research paradigms and to study the different lenses that they provide for viewing and understanding both physical and social phenomena. Environmental Studies, as well as other AUNE faculty will join us each day to support you in designing, conducting, analyzing, and presenting your findings of original mini-studies that reflect different research paradigms. These experiences will ground discussions of theory in the practical concerns of research and help inform the initial development of a research proposal that interests and excites you.
