Description

This course focuses on understanding, evaluating, and designing quantitative methods and methodologies for information systems research. Through this course, students will review and exercise the basic skills required for quantitative research at the post-graduate level, including literature review, research design, data collection and analysis, and report writing. To gain hands-on experience, students will work on an original research project during the semester and will be expected to submit a research outcome to an IS journal or conference. This course will be especially helpful to students who wish to use the quantitative research methods (e.g., survey, experimental and/or quasi-experimental methods) in their dissertations and subsequent research endeavors.

This course is closed for registration.
