This introductory series explores how Political Science applies the scientific method to investigate political phenomena, moving beyond opinion and assumption toward systematic, evidence-based inquiry. Students will examine the principles of scientific reasoning, the logic of political research, and how empirical methods are used to formulate questions, test hypotheses, and draw conclusions about political behaviour and institutions. It establishes the methodological foundation students need for rigorous political science research.
