Computational Social Science Seminar Series

About

The Computational Social Science (CSS) Seminar Series hosts interdisciplinary scholars whose work lies at the intersection of data science and the social sciences, including statistics, economics, political science, public policy, and sociology. The seminar serves to highlight the recent work of researchers who are involved in both the development and the application of statistical methods to better understand social phenomena and processes. We welcome the participation of any and all members of the university who are interested in these interdisciplinary topics.
