Social Science Research Methods for Honours is a core course in the Global, Urban and Social Studies (GUSS) BH131 Bachelor of Social Science (Honours) Program. It assumes that you have at least commenced research for your honours thesis.

In this course you will engage with the methodological approaches and methods that underpin Social Science research and will work to identify the methods required to support your Honours research project/thesis.

Your learning in this course will be facilitated through workshops where you will engage with your research community, which includes students and discipline relevant academics and/or professionals, to explore and apply the related content.

This course will run as a six-week intensive in the second half of Semester 1. If you are enrolled in this course as a component of your Bachelor Honours Program, your overall mark will contribute to the calculation of the weighted average mark (WAM).
