  1. Thank you for your advice everyone. It's very helpful to hear different perspectives. My undergraduate background is qualitative (anthropology), but most of the work I do right now is quantitative, survey research. I feel pretty strongly that not enough thought is given to how qualitative and quantitative data can be used together. It's a specific goal, but if I'm going to take the time to get a PhD then I want it to get me the things I want. Looking to see who's publishing on mixed methods in the social sciences seems like a good starting place, in addition to searching department websites for faculty. To @rising_star, I am considering whether other types of degrees will get me where I want to go.
  2. Hello! I am considering applying to sociology or criminology programs for Fall 2018. One of my top goals for graduate school is to be trained in mixed methods approaches to research design. Ideally I would go to a program that has strong qualitative researchers as well as professors who could teach me how to integrate quantitative and qualitative data in data collection and analysis. Does anyone know of programs or professors with strengths in teaching these methods? Any help is appreciated. I'm starting to create a list of programs that fit my interests.
