The Statistical Computing 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.
