RES 3010 - Case Study Research

Case study research investigates a phenomenon within its real-life context. Case study research uses multiple methods of data collection and analysis in order to explore a complex process. This course provides an in-depth understanding of case study and the practical skills necessary to design and conduct case study research. Students identify how the theoretical and philosophical foundations of case study align with their own philosophical orientations. Case study research is reviewed and critiqued. Students evaluate issues of research safety, ethics, and feasibility within their proposed research. Finally, students develop the methods section of a research prospectus.
