Course overview
This course is designed to equip students with a broad overview of the suite of methods operationalised by social sciences disciplines, to (a) enable each student to compare their own disciplinary approaches with those of others, in order to know anew their own disciplinary specificity; (b) to enable students to articulate why some methods are better equipped to prosecute particular disciplinary questions, and to modify methods issuing from other disciplines to make them fit for specific disciplinary purpose; (c) to equip students to choose appropriate methods for the prosecution of their particular Honours project. The course is thus methodological in that it produces a knowledge of methods, which sits behind decisions the students take with their supervisor as to particular methods.
