SOC 6130
Logics and Methods of Sociological Research

Course information provided by the 2025-2026 Catalog.

This course will expose students to ethnography, experiments, small-N comparison, content analysis, archival research, internet data scraping, data visualization, network and sequence approaches, and more. We will begin to answer the following core questions: What are the strengths of different methods? What are their weaknesses? What assumptions about research design issues are built into each method? What assumptions about the scientific status of sociology are built into each method? How can different methods be combined so that their strengths and weaknesses balance one another?


Enrollment Priority REF-FA25 Open to: new graduate students in sociology.
