This foundational course is for eligible graduate students who have no prior training in statistics.
It introduces students to the basic general concepts that underlie descriptive and inferential statistics. It is divided into 4 sessions:
- Session 1: Variables and Measurement
- Session 2: Describing a Variable
- Session 3: Populations and Samples
- Session 4: Statistical Models and Significance Tests

This module is part of the Social Science Research Methods Course programme which is a shared platform for providing research students with a broad range of quantitative and qualitative research.
The module provides an overview of interviewing as a social research method - guidance on planning interviews, pre-interview and post-interview tasks, positionality and ethics. It also provides an introduction to module structure, based on a specific interview topic. It concentrates on the processes of organising information after interviews, including interpretation through coding and close reading. Case Studies will look at PhD research on perceptions of forest use in Madagascar; in particualar the process of gathering qualitative interviews - planning through transcription to analysis. Looking at issues of gaining access and introducing sensitive research to interviewees, creating a good interview environment; the ethics of researching controversial/illegal topics.

This module is concerned with greater knowledge of regression, through extension of the simple linear model; enabling students to assess the models they use, testing for problems such as collinearity, outliers/leverage, and heteroskdasticity.
Introducing students to methods of data analysis that are relevant to spatial data. Discussing nature of Geographic Information Science (GISc), describing how space is conceptualised and represented in a GIS.
