research teams, enabling them to contribute to various phases of
research, such as data collection and data analysis. This track is

postdoctoral studies or for postdoctoral students who plan to pursue
research careers.

to the practicum, students in the Social Science Research track must
complete a master’s essay which should take the form of a publishable
research paper.
