This course is the second of a two-semester sequence that introduces students to the vocabulary, concepts, and methods of social research with application to policy analyses. Having acquired a solid conceptual grasp of different approaches to identifying and synthesizing pertinent literature, different paradigms of policy inquiries, and various techniques for conducting scientifically and ethically sound research in the first part of the sequence, this second course focuses on (i) hands-on skills in managing quantitative data and (ii) statistical research designs for causal inference. Serving as a compulsory course for all candidates pursuing the Bachelor’s degree in Public Policy and Politics, this course ultimately aims to hone students’ knowledge of and practical skills in choosing appropriate strategies and procedures to collect, manage, analyse, interpret, and report quantitative data in social research. Upon completion of this course, students will be capable of employing suitable methods to address the key empirical puzzles raised in their independent research (i.e., final-year capstone project).
