Session 1

Political science students need to be introduced to the approaches and methods of research :

Part 1 Knowing the different perspectives and approaches
Using the proper method for data collection and how to analyze it by ourselves
Be aware of the ethical aspect of doing research and get familiarized with them
Part 2 Initiation to experimental research
Descriptive and basic of inferential statistics (Excel)

Choosing a method depending on the aims of the research and the characteristics of the object
under study, it has to be selected wisely, there is not a good or bad method, only a better fit to conduct
quality research.
