<p>This module provides the opportunity to acquire and apply the techniques of research design regarding both qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods approaches.  It provides for the exploration of a range of possibilities in data collection and analysis with relevance to particular research questions. It will include general issues about research methods (e.g. research formulation and design, inductive versus deductive approaches), and will then cover a range of both qualitative and quantitative research designs. Elements of mixed methods design will also be introduced here. The module will address theoretical and practical aspects of data collection and analysis along with practical support of the application of relevant computer techniques/programmes to support data analysis.</p>
