The Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) is offering funds to support training in statistics, quantitative methods, research design and data analysis for graduate students and pre-tenure scholars.
ICPSR scholarships provide a tuition waiver to the four-week sessions of the ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research. Held in Ann Arbor, Michigan, the Summer Program’s four-week sessions provide an immersive experience for learning statistics and quantitative methods while developing professional relationships with students and researchers from around the world. Each session features a broad curriculum of courses that participants may attend, including introductory-level statistics, regression analysis, game theory, multilevel models, Bayesian analysis, network analysis, longitudinal analysis, time series analysis, categorical data analysis and more.
