MRES 502 Multivariate Statistics |
3 Credits |
This course covers the basic multivariate techniques
that are currently used in various areas of social sciences.
The learning goal for students is to have a conceptual
understanding of each statistical technique, be able to
apply the correct technique to any given set of data,
properly interpret the output of statistical computer
packages, and understand and critique scientific papers
that use these techniques. The course begins with
an introductory session on matrix algebra, sample
geometry and random sampling. Next, the properties
of the multivariate normal distribution are examined with an
emphasis on how to make inferences about multivariate
means and to compare several multivariate means
(MANOVA). Other topics that are covered include analysis of
covariance structures including principal components, factor
analysis and canonical correlation analysis as well as
classification and grouping techniques such as
discriminant analysis, clustering and
multidimensional scaling.

MRES 503 Research Methods in Management and Organization Studies |
3 Credits |
Research Methods in Management and Organization
Studies As an introduction to research in management
and As an introduction to research in management and
the scientific method of inquiry and provides a critical
appraisal of the various research methods available to
organizational scholars following the natural science
paradigm. It aims to familiarize students with the
process of identifying a research question, formulation
of hypotheses or predictions about the question, designing
a study to test the hypotheses, observing or measuring
variables, examining the relationships between variables
observed, and drawing conclusions about the research
question based on observed relationships.
Topics to be covered include a discussion of measurement
issues such as reliability and validity, common threats
to validity in research design, decisions regarding the
choice of samples and settings, and the relative
advantages and disadvantages of various empirical
research strategies. To support the course content,
examples of management and organization research are
critically analyzed and students are expected to
develop their own research proposal
by the end of the semester.

3 Credits |
This course focusses on the qualitative tradition
in social science and organizational research.
The former part of the course reviews the intellectual
roots of and the current frameworks informing
qualitative inquiry as well as the debates surrounding
quantitative and qualitative traditions. Central
characteristics of qualitative work and its relation ship to
theory generation and testing are then discussed.
This is followed by reviewing the major forms of qualitative
research like ethnography,case studies,and
ethnomethodology. The latter part of the course moes towards
a coverage of issues of design and analysis in
qualitative research. Specific topics to be covered
are data collection techniques (like interviewing,
participant observation, focus groups, document analysis)
and methods for the analysis of qualitative data, including
use of software packages. The course concludes by
exploring the possibilities of combining
quantitative and qualitative research.

MRES 601 Research Methods in Management and Organization Studies |
3 Credits |
This PhD seminar provides a foundation for theory building
and empirical analysis in the study of organizations.
Rather than focus on particular statistical or analytical
methods, the goal is to provide participants with a
rigorous grounding in the scientific approach to
constructing theoretical arguments and designing
appropriate empirical tests. The course is
organized around the question of how to do good research.
Topics to be covered include common threats to validity in
research design, decisions regarding the choice
of samples and settings, measurement issues
such as reliability and validity, estimation
methods, data collection tools, and ethics in
planning, conduct, and publication of research.
The seminar thus serves as a complement to other
basic and advanced research method courses,
and will develop skills needed to:
1. build and analyze theoretical arguments
2. design effective tests of theory
3. understand the interplay between theory
building and theory testing
Students will get some experience critiquing the
methodology used in published studies and hopefully
develop some idea about how to start conducting
their own dissertation research.

This course covers the fundamental concepts for probability
and statistics. In the first part of the course, the focus
is on concepts including random variables, probability
distributions, specific discrete and continuous
