This course introduces students to research design, method, and theory across the humanities and social sciences. Students learn how to select a research topic or problem site, examine academic scholarship, gather data, and conduct critical analysis through the composition of an extended research project. Along the way, students come to understand the formal conventions of an academic research paper, while engaging critical writing and discourse across a range of disciplinary fields and practices, with emphases on topics pertaining to race, ethnicity, indigeneity, gender, sexuality, transnationalism, migration, globalization, and colonialism, among others.
