Qualitative Research
What we do
The QCIF supports researchers in applying qualitative methodology for relevant projects. More broadly, QCIF looks to support the underrepresented Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (HASS) domains by building skills in data handling and digital research methods.
The team helps researchers design and plan projects using best practices, from data collection through to analysis and future reuse. Researchers are also supported in developing iterative analytical workflows and exploring new insights through the use of digital technologies.
