Description:

The Statistical Computing Workshop (formerly R Workshop) is a year-long series that meets three times per quarter during the academic year. The purpose of the workshop is to learn, practice, and update cutting edge statistical programming skills as they apply to quantitative and computational social science.

Workshop meetings will feature internal or external speakers introducing a new tool, method, or research project involving statistical computing in the broadest sense. All meetings are hybrid or fully virtual.

The workshop is open to everyone. Graduate students in political science formally enrolled in the corresponding version of POLI_SCI 490 will receive full credit by attending every meeting.
