CRTY 10831 - Dissertation Methods I

Credits: 5


Students will be guided by their dissertation committee to integrate the literature review into appropriate research methods for their individualized dissertation. Students will be exposed to various kinds of research design, data collection techniques and analysis methods to equip them with the skills to develop a trans-disciplinary research approach. Students will workshop a variety of conceptual structures for their dissertation that is informed by a mastery of the literature and consideration of different research approaches. The research is performed under the supervision of a faculty instructor/graduate advisor and will thus vary based upon the training and expertise of the research team. Students are expected to (1) consider a wide variety of research methodologies (2) demonstrate creative agility in applying these methodologies to their individualized project, (3) provide periodic updates and written reports of the research methods in consideration. Overall, this research should be working towards the production of an original trans-disciplinary methodology for an original dissertation project.
