Research Methodology

COURSE SCHEDULE FOR 2025 - 26

Research methodology in social sciences involves systematic approaches to studying human behavior, societies, and cultures. It includes qualitative methods like interviews, case studies, and ethnography, which provide in-depth insights into social phenomena. Quantitative methods, such as surveys, experiments, and statistical analysis, help measure and analyze patterns. Mixed-methods research combines both approaches for a comprehensive understanding. Ethical considerations, reliability, and validity are crucial in ensuring credible results. These methodologies help scholars explore social issues, theories, and policy implications.
