Graduate students at research institutions in the United States are often required to complete a major research project, such as a thesis or dissertation prior to graduation. In these research projects, graduate students might choose to research what one could deem as a controversial topic. Some topics that might be seen as controversial often include topics that involve religion, sex, gender, race, ethnicity, and other topics. Specifically in qualitative research, the researcher should be aware and consider the insider-outsider perspective prior to beginning their research. For graduate students, they should consult with their graduate or research advisor when engaging in research activities involving controversial topics.
