POLS 209,
Spring 2011: Introduction to Political Science Research
|
This course teaches the
“science” in political science. The objective is to provide majors with the
tools needed to read and understand high quality political science research
presented in future courses, as well as perhaps produce some of their own along
the way. This is a “W” course, which means there will be a substantial focus on
writing. We will focus on the various aspects of the scientific research process as
applied to answering political science research questions and theory
development.
