The Field School aims to offer training in the foundations and practice of
ethnographic methods. The faculty works closely with participants to
identify the required field methods needed to address their academic or
professional needs. The Field School is suitable for graduate and
undergraduate students in social sciences and other fields of study that
use qualitative approaches (such as education, communication, cultural
studies, health, social work, human ecology, development studies, and
consumer behavior, among others), applied social scientists, professionals,
and researchers who have an interest in learning more about ethnographic
methods and their applications.
The program includes topics such as the foundations of ethnographic
research; ethics in fieldwork; feminist, multi-species, and decolonial
perspectives; research design and data generation techniques; logistics;
digital ethnography; ethnography in specific fields of activity (applied
social sciences, health, social service, environmental studies, public
policy design, business, and others); principles of organization and
indexation of field data; analyzing field data; basic principles of
qualitative analysis software packages.
The total workload of the course is 30 hours. In this edition of the summer
school, the option of earning credits is not available.
Places are limited. The tuition fee is US$1,300. Comitas Field School
