ICPSR Registration open for Summer Programs on Data Analysis
Are you into social science data? If you are, ICPSR, the world’s largest social science data archive, annually hosts a summer program in quantitative methods of social science research. As a member institution, GSU students, faculty and staff receive a substantially reduced registration fee, and there are also fee-waiver scholarships available.
Participants have the option of enrolling in summer programs that range from three-day workshops to four-week sessions. Most workshops are held in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on the University of Michigan campus, but a few workshops are also offered in Chapel Hill, NC, Amherst, MA, Boulder, CO, New York, NY, and even Montreal, Canada. See the full Summer Course Schedule here, but here are some highlights:
- Regression Analysis I: Introduction
- Regression Analysis II: Linear Models
- Regression Analysis III: Advanced Methods
- Introduction to the R Statistical Computing Environment
- Methodological Issues in Quantitative Research on Race and Ethnicity
- Panel Data Analysis Using Stata
- Finding Patterns in Data, Big and Small
