| Course Description |
This course is intended to provide students with skills and knowledge required to apply the methods of science to the assessment of social programs. Here a social program refers to organized, goal-directed activities designed to address a social, humanistic, or other human related problem. The goal of the course is to provide you, the student, with enough skill and knowledge that you are able to design and implement evaluations of programs. The extent to which you are able to do this without assistance reflects largely on your familiarity with scientific methods.
