ANG-7101 Research Methods

This graduate seminar is designed to develop research competencies as students work on what will become their essay, praxis, or thesis projects. By exploring each part of a research project (hypothesis and questions, the field of study, an annotated bibliography), students will acquire the skills and methods needed to meet the objectives of their program. Students will reflect on the expectations of academia (publications, communications, teaching, and researching). Through workshops, presentations, and various writing assignments, students will discuss their preliminary ideas, while developing research literacy and a command of research tools (databases, digital learning technologies) and ethics.
