The Department of Social Research Methods – one of the most recent additions to Iscte’s new organisational structure – forms part of the School of Sociology and Public Policy. It covers three academic areas: Social Research Methods, Statistics and Data Analysis in the Social Sciences, and Demography.
The Department is responsible for managing more than 50 modules at the first, second and third cycles, which form part of the programmes offered by the School of Sociology and Public Policy; it also collaborates with departments from other Iscte schools in teaching and coordinating more than a dozen modules in the fields of Social Research Methods and Statistics and Data Analysis in the Social Sciences.
The wide range of modules offered by the Department of Social Research Methods aims to develop knowledge and skills in the following areas: statistics and data analysis; extensive and intensive research methods and techniques; qualitative data analysis methodologies; demography; statistical indicators and sources; and research design and field research.
The Department of Social Research Methods is responsible for the academic coordination of the Postgraduate Programme in Data Analysis in the Social Sciences.
The faculty consists mainly of sociologists with extensive experience in teaching and research, and also includes research professors, as reflected in a significant body of national and international scientific publications. This contributes decisively to sound integration between the theoretical component and the application of various quantitative and qualitative methodologies in real-world research situations, thereby enhancing the quality of the research produced and enabling the continuous updating of the syllabus content for the modules taught by the Department.
