PRLS 450- Research Methods

  Course Syllabus

In this course, we learn the steps, from idea to implementation, of conducting a rigorous scientific study of human behavior. Students get to set up their own research projects, design methods & questionnaires, conduct a pilot study, and write a complete proposal.

After all of their hard work, they present their findings to their colleagues & other professionals. Several students have even received grants to fund their studies after completing this course!
