Sociology 326 - Research Sem in Soci/Anthro

This seminar explores practical issues confronting thesis students in doing research and writing. Students will have the opportunity to share their research projects, identify strengths and weaknesses, formulate research questions, locate their projects in a larger academic literature, and discuss the overall structure of the thesis. In addition, students in 326 will join those in 226 for activities that could include reading field notes, narrative analysis of texts, survey design, coding and measurement of quantitative variables, and/or visual analysis.
