Research Design and Methods in Linguistics

The goal of this class is to develop professional research techniques in Linguistics. The course provides students with an opportunity to carry out a research project on a topic of their choosing, which will culminate in a final presentation and a final project. Class will meet weekly in a seminar format. Class meeting time will be divided principally between two types of activities: (i) workshops on research design and data analysis including basic inferential statistical techniques; and (ii) small group work where classmates will discuss problems and progress on student projects.
