Not many universities offer this sort of a program which has a combination of sociological and computational skills development along with data analysis. Along with the subjects we have a 6–8-month span of structured research we have to complete, which is an in-depth qualitative or quantitative or mixed method project. I took a mixed methods approach and, I am getting to learn both quantitative and qualitative research skills. I am currently researching "Societal attitudes towards Immigration in Ireland," and I have two supervisors, Dr Brendan Halpin and Dr Emily Murphy, who are guiding me through the process. They are supporting me in gathering data, choosing the appropriate methods, analysing the results, and determining how to conduct the research. In addition to the course, we have the opportunity to attend discussions with other departments and conferences.
