Course description
This course equips you with the knowledge and skills you will need to undertake academic research in the broad area of communication. It explores the paradigmatic assumptions and theoretical perspectives behind the many different ways of conducting research in communication, and by extension, the broad area of humanities and social sciences where communication plays a central role. We provide practical examples and guidance as to how communication research should be planned and implemented.
