Course Description:

Designing a research project in social sciences is very different from it in nature sciences. A well- designed research project is not only important but also interesting and valid. Student could build up their ability of doing good research by learning from others’ works. This course aims to help students achieve three goals: first, learning the research basics, for example, what is a theory and puzzle? How to operationalize a concept? Second, understanding both the quantitative and qualitative methods. Third, learning to read, write a social science research paper and review academic works.
