    <p><span>The course focuses on the "practical side" of sociology:
    using sociological insights and research methodologies (qualitative and
    quantitative) in an applied setting to examine local social conditions and
    social organizations or programs that address them. The course prepares
    students to become "embedded sociologists," who conduct
    change-oriented research in communities or organizations. Course content
    includes conceptualization of applied research projects, an introduction to
    community-based research, training and practice in various applied field
    methodologies, conducting an applied research project, and practice in
    communicating applied research results to local stakeholders.</span><span></span></p>
