CESSR Announces 2009-10 Workshop in Methods (WIM)
The mission of the Workshop in Methods is to provide education and training in sophisticated research methods to graduate students and faculty in the social sciences at Indiana University. Our goal is to supplement statistics and methods courses across campus with topical workshops led by recognized experts from across the United States. These workshops take various forms, including (1) seminars on specific research methods and tools, (2) informational presentations on topics such as grant writing, the relevant consulting provided on campus, and successfully navigating IRB, and (3) advice about working with large data sets. We hope these workshops will provide a supportive community of like-minded scholars, expose faculty and graduate students to rigorous and state of the art quantitative and qualitative methods, and highlight the excellent social science research underway at Indiana University.

Oversight
As WIM Director, Dr. Pridemore created two Advisory Boards comprised of faculty and graduate students from a wide range of schools and departments across campus. These advisory boards serve as liaisons with faculty and graduate students in their home departments. Advisory board members not only aid in disseminating information about WIM presentations and other activities, but also collect information from their constituents about interest in specific workshop topics. Most importantly, advisory board members provide creative input concerning WIM activities, our website presence, and countless other items. If you are a faculty member or graduate student, do not see your school or department represented below, and are interested in becoming a liaison, please contact Dr. Pridemore.
