2018 ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research

The ICPSR Summer Program provides in-depth, hands-on training in
statistical techniques and research methodologies used across the social,
behavioral, and medical sciences. We strive to fulfill the needs of
researchers throughout their careers by offering instruction on a broad
range of topics, from introductory statistics to advanced quantitative
methods and cutting-edge techniques.

From May through August 2018, the Summer Program will offer more than 80
courses in cities across the US, Canada, and Europe. Registration is now
open. For more information, visit icpsr.umich.edu/sumprog or contact

FOUR-WEEK SESSIONS
Held in Ann Arbor (MI), the Summer Program’s Four-week Sessions provide an
immersive learning experience—think “summer camp for social scientists”!
Participants in our First (June 25 - July 20) and Second (July 23 – August
17) Sessions can choose from more than 35 courses, including regression,
Bayesian analysis, longitudinal analysis, game theory, MLE, SEM, causal
inference, multilevel models, race/ethnicity and quantitative methods, and
more. New courses in 2018 include social choice theory, as well as two-week
workshops on meta-analysis and network analysis.

Scholarships are available for researchers and students in political
science, public policy, and other disciplines, as well as for returning
Summer Program participants.
