For 2014, a number of new, basic and advanced courses have been added to the existing Methods School roster. Overall, the Methods School offers twelve courses in quantitative, qualitative, and formal methods. All of these courses focus on both the theory and practice of social science research and provide high-quality training in diverse, state-of-the-art methods and techniques by outstanding and highly experienced international faculty.




The Summer School offers two weeks of rigorous training in social science research methods and truly global networking opportunities. Acquire cutting-edge quantitative, qualitative, and formal methods skills, meet future collaborators and co-authors, and make new friends with similar research interests from all over the Asia-Pacific, the U.S., Europe, and beyond. Campus accommodation is available for summer school participants at affordable prices. It will be held in one of the world's most fascinating cities: the Lion City of Singapore!
