PROJ-2023Applied Research Projects
In this course, students will complete an applied research project using a quantitative scientific method of investigation to collect data and analyze the results of their study. To begin, students will be introduced to different techniques and types of quantitative research and explore the frameworks and tools used to interpret and present data. They will also be taught how to use software to compile and analyze data sets and will apply the design of experiment (DoE) method to find cause-and-effect relationships. With guidance from an assigned faculty member, students will then select a research topic, design their study, and execute their investigation using the skills they have acquired throughout the program. Students will also prepare a final written report to capture the results of their study, which they will present at the end of the course.
