Social Science Research Methods
(SSRM)
Organised by
Mahatma Gandhi Labour Institute, Ahmedabad
27th September 2016 to 1st October 2016
Mahatma Gandhi Labour Institute (MGLI) announces a programme from 27th September 2016 to 1st October 2016 with the purpose of imparting knowledge on Research Methodology to the researchers across the various fields of Social Sciences.
The need for such programme arises for usage of mixed (qualitative and quantitative) methods in research. Research is defined as a systematic investigation into and study of materials and sources in order to establish facts and reach new conclusions. In Research Methodology "Methodology" indicates more than simply the methods which are used to collect data. It is necessary to consider the concepts and theories which lie beneath the methods. e.g in the context of social science to highlight a specific feature of a social, economic or political theory it is required to recognise the underlying concepts of the methodology.
In case of methods it is necessary to ensure that the research questions and/or hypotheses are addressed with clarity. The methods should be described in an elaborate manner for the study to be replicated. At every stage explanations and justification with logical reasons for the choice of particular methods and materials is to be provided. There are several ways to approach the research that fulfils the requirements of a dissertation. These differ both inter and intra disciplines.
The innovativeness of this programme is its endeavour to deliver both theoretical and practical aspects of research through a direct interaction in the field. The major objectives of the programme are:
1. Providing conceptual and theoretical clarity on research.
2. Review of literature and hypothesis formulation
3. Sampling Design and Techniques
4. Questionnaire/ Schedule formulation

6. Data entry coding and analysis (PSPP)
