1 Political Science 516 Introduction to Political Inquiry State University of New York at Albany Fall 2013 Professor Cheng Chen T 2:45-5:35 Office: Milne Hall 214A Office Hours: Tuesday 12:35-2:35 Phone: cchen@albany.edu Course Description This course is designed to provide students with a solid intellectual foundation for conducting political inquiry across the subfields in the discipline of political science. The first part of the course examines the classic ontological and epistemological debates that underpin and shape contemporary social science methodology. It covers some of the major works in philosophy of social science that are most relevant to the discipline of political science. The second part of the course starts with concept formation and measurement, and then exposes students to a wide range of methods most frequently employed by contemporary political scientists, including formal models; large-n statistical analysis; historical case studies; content analysis; field research and ethnography; and interview and survey research. The third part of the course introduces students to some of the most salient ongoing debates on political science methodology, such as the call for unified standards for social science research, and the recent ascendance of multimethod approaches. This course is required in the Political Science doctoral program curriculum. Upon completion of this course, students should be able to identify the foundational assumptions of various research traditions and methods; evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of a wide range of methods in different research settings; and construct original research designs employing appropriate research methods. Course Requirements Your grade in this course will be determined in the following manner: Seminar participation 20% Oral presentation 20% Midterm exam 30% 10-page research design 30% Class attendance and active, informed participation are mandatory. Students must complete the assigned readings prior to the seminar meetings. The oral presentations require each student to analyze and report on a number of assigned readings for a given week. The exact number of the presentations will depend on the number of students enrolled in the seminar. The written assignments will include a midterm take-home exam and a double-spaced 10-page research design addressing a topic within each student s subfield. The final draft of the research design will be due and presented in the last class on December 10. Later papers without university approved reasons will be penalized a third of a letter grade per day late.
2 Readings There is no required book for this course. All the required readings are available on Blackboard. They will be also included in a course pack available at Mary Jane Books on Western Avenue at Quail Street. Those marked with available on-line can be retrieved by the on-line links provided on the syllabus or by clicking on Journals - Print and Online from the Libraries web page and typing in the title of the journal in the search box.
