Topics to be covered

As part of a new initiative to expand research training for junior investigators engaged in academic research, we are conducting a series of research methods and data analysis based workshops. Most research work require students to develop a familiarity with methodologies outside of their home discipline. This program introduces research scholars/faculty members to key concepts, terminology and techniques in the various methodologies.

What is the importance of data analysis - instead, one should say what is not important about data analysis. Merely analyzing data isn't sufficient from the point of view of making a decision. How does one interpret from the analyzed data is more important. Thus, data analysis is not a decision making system, but decision supporting system and this initiative will help to fill the gap.

The workshop adopts a problem solving approach which would include lecture and group work sessions. The focus would be to undertake empirical research based setting which includes advanced /professional statistical techniques, overview of SPSS, data analysis and interpretation of results. Interactive learning sessions would focus on "how to do" analysis with SPSS. The workshop aims in understanding the applications and issues pertaining to Research in respective domains of participants. In addition there is a need to learn some basic principles, which require knowledge of introductory statistics and computing software with application.

This workshop will provide participants with practical experience with a variety of analysis tools to help them to make decisions appropriate to the research situation.
