Routinely offered courses in linear regression or ANOVA include HDFS 613, HDFS 617, POL 501, PSY 606, PSY 631, SOC 680, and STAT 512.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All students must already have completed a foundational research methods course. A new interdisciplinary cross-listed seminar on \u201cPrinciples of Research&nbsp;Design in the Behavioral, Health, and Social Sciences\u201d will be offered in future semesters to meet this requirement. This seminar is intended to&nbsp;provide a survey of different types of qualitative and quantitative methods, and&nbsp;ensure a common foundational learning experience that unifies all students earning&nbsp;the certificate. Comparable courses already offered within specific CLA or HHS departments can count as fulfilling this requirement. Current courses that meet this prerequisite are listed below. Other courses may meet this prerequisite but must be approved by the MCAP steering committee. Approved prerequisites are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>COM 582 (Descriptive\/Experimental Research In Communication)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PSY 688 (Research Methods)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SOC 580 (Methods for Social Research)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>POL 600 (Political Science: Discipline and Profession)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>COM 682\/NUR 599\/ HDFS 590 (Interdisciplinary Graduate Research Methods)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NOTE: Other methodology classes from the Communications department with COM 682 course number (eg.

There will also be faculty members from departments across CLA and HHS lending their methodological expertise as guest speakers every week.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The topics covered in this course are listed below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 1: Philosophy of Science&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 2: Research Questions and Hypotheses&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 3: Theories and Theoretical Framework&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 4: Concepts and Measurements&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 5: Ethics in Research (For participants and researchers)&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 6: Causal Inference&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 7: Experimental Studies&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 8: Observational Studies&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 9: Surveys (Quantitative Research)&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 11: Sampling and Inference&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 12: Interviews\/ Focus Groups (Qualitative Research)&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 13: Ethnography \/ Participant Observation&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 14: Mixed Methods Design&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 15: Prediction (Computational approaches)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div  id=\"capstone\" class=\"section has-padding-top-large  page-layout-wide page-layout-two-column\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n                <div class=\"tagged-header-container tagged-header-container--content-block tagged-header-container-gold\">\n            <h2 class=\"tagged-header tagged-header--gold\">Capstone<\/h2>\n        <\/div>\n                \n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns page-layout-columns columns is-multiline is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column column is-full-tablet page-layout-main is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Capstone Experiences<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We receive many inquiries about what capstone experiences are possible. Below are some examples from past certificate students. Certificate students can alternatively propose their own idea for a capstone experience by emailing an idea to&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:AMAP@purdue.edu\">mcap@purdue.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Past approved capstones:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Serving as a teaching assistant (TA) for a graduate-level method course\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>E.g., Students have TA&#8217;ed for SOC680, SOC 681, POL605, and others<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Some instructors allow students to TA as an independent study to fulfill the capstone<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Serving as a methodological resource for a research project\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>One student served as a methodological expert for a research project that developed and fielded an online survey.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Writing a journal article-length methods paper or dissertation chapter\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Papers must primarily focus on research methods<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Student must be first\/lead author<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We do not require method papers to be published for the capstone. However, the papers must be of high quality that are suitable for publication<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Conducting an interdisciplinary workshop on an advanced methodological technique\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Workshops are typically designed to be two or three hours on method-related topics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Students can co-teach a workshop. E.g.

Email the completed form to&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:AMAP@purdue.edu\">mcap@purdue.edu<\/a>&nbsp;with the subject &#8220;MCAP Certificate Requirements Complete&#8221; to alert the steering committee of the completed requirements. We will send a confirmation email verifying receipt of your email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will also need to register for candidacy to earn the AMBS certificate. This can be done in the same semester as you are earning another degree (e.g., MS, PhD), or in a semester you are not earning another degree. CAND 99100 should be registered for if you are taking other courses and\/or research. CAND 99200 should be used only if you are not taking any other credits, typically in special circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To facilitate tracking of students who are enrolled in certificate programs, the Office of the Registrar will establish a&nbsp;special admission status for such individuals.&nbsp;When a student completes the requirements for a certificate, the MCAP steering committee will notify the Graduate School.&nbsp;The&nbsp;Graduate School is responsible for certifying the completion of requirements.&nbsp;The Graduate School will audit the following items to certify the completion of requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(a) the name of the student including PUID,<br>(b) student status, i.e. degree student including PUID,<br>(c) the complete name of each course, including course prefix and number,<br>(d) the grade in each course, and<br>(e) the semester and year each course is completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Graduate School will then notify the Office of the Registrar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transcripting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This certificate will be posted separately upon completion of the requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This Graduate certificate will be recorded in the following manner:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Awarded: Graduate Certificate<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Program: Graduate School Administration \u2013 CPOSTB<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>College: Graduate School<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Campus: Purdue West Lafayette (PWL)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Major: Advanced Methods in the&nbsp;Behavioral, Health, and Social Sciences<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Credits earned toward a certificate will be included in the computation of the overall GPA posted on the transcript. The certificate, itself, will be printed by the Office of the Registrar at the West Lafayette campus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The certificate will be awarded jointly by the Graduate School. It will bear the signature of the dean of the Graduate&nbsp;School. Certificates will be awarded at the normal times when degrees are awarded. The Office of the Registrar will include&nbsp;the certificate with the diploma for degree-seeking students and mail the certificate to non-degree students.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column column is-one-quarter-desktop is-full-tablet is-full-mobile page-layout-sidebar is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:67px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Resources<\/h2>\n\n\n<div  class=\"purdue-home-buttons \">\n    <ul class=\"purdue-home-button-list\">\n                    <li class=\"\"><a class=\"purdue-home-button purdue-home-button--black\" href=\"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/gradschool\/admissions\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">Graduate School<\/a><\/li>\n                    <li class=\"\"><a class=\"purdue-home-button purdue-home-button--black\" href=\"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/research\/mcap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/AMAP-Graduate-Certificate-Application-Form-2020-08.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Application Form<\/a><\/li>\n                    <li class=\"\"><a class=\"purdue-home-button purdue-home-button--black\" href=\"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/academics\/ogsps\/documents\/gpo\/forms\/gs-form-18.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">GS-18 Form<\/a><\/li>\n                    <li class=\"\"><a class=\"purdue-home-button purdue-home-button--black\" href=\"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/research\/mcap\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/AMAP-Graduate-Certificate-Competion-Form.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Completion Form<\/a><\/li>\n            <\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Resources<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-51","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/research\/mcap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/research\/mcap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/research\/mcap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/research\/mcap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/research\/mcap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51"}],"version-history":[{"count":29,"href":"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/research\/mcap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":535,"href":"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/research\/mcap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51\/revisions\/535"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/research\/mcap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
