The course is an introduction to visual sociology and visual research methods. It provides students with the basics of visual sociology and visual studies, both in theory and practice. Its aim is also to give students an opportunity to explore the field themselves and gain some practice in working with visual material in social sciences. The course is completed by in-class workshops, students’ own projects and outside classroom activities.
