practice of ethnographic methods. The faculty works closely with participants
to identify the required field methods needed to address their academic or
professional needs. The Field School is suitable for graduate and undergraduate
students in social sciences and other fields of study that use qualitative
approaches (such as education, communication, cultural studies, health, social
work, human ecology, development studies, consumer behavior, among others),
applied social scientists, professionals, and researchers who have an interest
in learning more about ethnographic methods and their applications.</span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Spranq eco sans",sans-serif"><span></span></span></p>
