Description:

Training for PhD and MSc students in the design of social research, quantitative and qualitative analysis.

Small-n and comparative case study design by Dr Raphael Susewind.


This course will consider typical design choices for case study research, ranging from justifying single and very-small-n designs in an interpretivist tradition to more formal boolean logic for contrast and compare designs (most similar, most different, etc). It will be driven by students' own projects - bring your ideas!
