Course Overview

The course explores different methodological approaches and their application to real-life political problems. It will equip you with essential transferable skills in:

  • research design

  • a range of research methods and their application

  • the management of different types of data

My knowledge has been vastly improved thanks to the wide variety of classes offered by the fantastic teaching staff. Assignments are well explained; marks are returned in good time, and we are continually asked to provide feedback to improve the running of classes. It has been a challenging but delightful year, and I am continuing my studies to PhD level.
