Statistics for Social Sciences

Statistics for Social Sciences
In this course, which assumes no background in quantitative methods, students will be introduced to the necessary skills to analyze data sets and derive meaningful conclusions and interpretations. We will combine exposition to statistical theory with practical uses of statistical modeling, and we will explore common statistical tools used in both industrial and research environments including STATA and/or R. We will apply the classroom material to real-world data sets in regular lab sessions. We will focus on data and examples from social sciences, but the course will be generally applicable to students of all disciplines. (Methods)
