This course meets with three primary objectives: to provide students with a basic “literacy” in research methods, enabling them to be critical consumers of literature reporting research findings; to introduce students to the role and use of research methods in conflict intervention work; and to provide students preparing to undertake the Master’s Project an introduction to the types of research methodology that they are most likely to use in their Master’s Projects.
