This course, offered full-time over one year or part-time over two years,
provides training in team research and report writing. It is specifically
designed for people who will conduct research projects, but it is also designed
for policy administrators who will not be doing research of their own but who
will be expected to read research reports, formulate research projects that
will be commissioned, and cooperate with researchers who are either on their
staff or who serve as outside consultants. The main part of the course consists
of a group project on a social policy issue, such as youth homelessness,
domestic violence or foster care, to provide practical experience of each step
in the research process.
