Research skills are essential for not only postgraduates but for many aspects of an academic career. These skills, when learnt properly can provide the user with the tools to investigate for themselves a plethora of resources and become a treasure-trove of knowledge.
In this unit, you will learn the research underlying these methods, the philosophy of research and selected research methodologies. These research principles and methodologies will allow the student to perform specialised research and formulate integrated research proposals.
By the end of this unit, you will be equipped to develop research-driven perspectives on specialised research methodologies and apply them to Christian texts and issues, and/or ministry practice as a reflective practitioner.
