School aims to offer training in the foundations and practice of ethnographic
methods. The faculty works closely with participants to identify the required field
methods 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, and consumer behavior, among others), applied social
scientists, professionals, and researchers who have an interest in learning
more about ethnographic methods and their applications.<span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span></span></span></p>
