Mixed Methods in Health Research

3 Credits

Students in this course will be introduced to ways in which qualitative and quantitative data can be integrated to capture a broader perspective and answer more complex research questions than either will provide alone. The course will cover formulating mixed methods research questions, collecting and analyzing different types of data, analysis across multiple mixed data sets, choosing appropriate mixed methods designed for both qualitatively- and quantitatively-driven studies, and interpreting mixed methods results. Prerequisites: CGH 106 and BSTA 001
