Dear Colleagues,
We would appreciate if you circulate the following announcement regarding the 2019 ICPSR Summer Workshops at the Hobby School of Public Affairs at the University of Houston (UH) to your colleagues and graduate students.
ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research
The Hobby School of Public Affairs has been selected by Inter-University Consortium of Political and Social Research (ICPSR) as a host of the 2019 Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research (ICPSR) that was launched in 1962 as a national initiative for training social scientists in research methods including mathematical modeling, statistics, data analytic and experimental design.
ICPSR is hosted at the University of Michigan, and runs its flagship Summer Institute in Ann Arbor. The Hobby School joins a selective group of academic institutions in the ICPSR network offering summer training workshops. Other hosts of Summer Workshops include the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, the University of California Berkeley, Indiana University at Bloomington, the University of Colorado at Boulder, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. ICPSR also has three international partners: the University of Glasgow, Scotland; the University of St. Gallen, Switzerland; and York University, Toronto, Canada.
These workshops aim at training students and professionals in the analytical tools and software used in the analysis of data in the social sciences. The Hobby School will offer six short workshops this summer:
1.         Linear Regression Analysis in the Social Sciences, five-day workshop, May 13-17
2.         Introduction to R, three-day workshop, May 13-15
3.         Social Science Data and Model Visualization in R, two-day workshop, May 16-17
4.         Time Series Cross-Sectional (TSCS) Data Analysis, five-day workshop, May 20-24
5.         Maximum Likelihood Estimation, five-day workshop, May 20-24
6.         Structural Equation Modeling, three-day workshop, May 22-24
The workshops meet daily from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and include lectures and hands-on lab training on the applications learned in class. Financial support of up to $1,000 per workshop is available for eligible students.
