SOC 3030
Research Methods: Design and Measurement

Course information provided by the 2022-2023 Catalog.

This course introduces students to the principles of sociological research methods. We will first discuss the research process itself, then focus on issues such as the relationship between theory and empirical analysis, the logic of research design, causal inference, measurement of concepts, modes of data collection, and ethics. By the end of the course, students will be able to evaluate the methodological strength of social science research projects and design methodologically rigorous research proposals.


Forbidden Overlaps Forbidden Overlap: due to an overlap in content, students will not receive credit for both PAM 3120 and SOC 3030.
