EDHD 2201H - Basics of Research Methods for Honors Students
(2 cr; Student Option; offered Every Spring)
Equivalent courses: was EPSY 2201H until 07-SEP-21
As part of a society that is saturated with "research," we have all at some point encountered at least one form of research--whether it is via election polls, market surveys, investigative findings reported on the 10pm news, or academic research for your papers. There is sometimes too much research to make sense of it all. As an undergraduate student, you have likely found many examples of research, and it will only become more important in your own academic career, and if you choose to pursue an academic route, in your own development as a scholar. Therefore, learning the basics of research--how it is conducted, how it can be used to answer everyday questions, and what makes it good quality--will make you not only a better researcher, but also a better consumer of academic and popular research. This course aims to introduce you, as an honors student, to these topics.

(1 cr; Student Option No Audit; offered Every Spring; may be repeated for 2 credits)

In this course you'll develop a clearer sense of self and create greater awareness of your multiple identities and how they influence your career decision-making and future success. You'll also learn the importance of social and cultural capital and how to build the capital needed to move forward in your career journey. Through community building, storytelling, reflection, readings, lecture, discussion, in-class activities and projects, you'll be empowered to define career success through your own lived experiences and cultural lenses, gain confidence in your career decision-making abilities, and author your own career journey.
