The MIDAS-ICPSR Social Data Science Summer Academy is a week-long hybrid program hosted collaboratively by the Michigan Institute for Data Science (MIDAS) and the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR). Designed for both ICPSR members and University of Michigan researchers, this intensive academy will provide a thorough and practical overview of essential data science techniques and how they can be applied to advance social science research.

Led by globally leading experts in data science and social science, sessions will be offered simultaneously virtually by Zoom and in-person at the University of Michigan campus. Through lectures, hands-on workshops, example applications, and group discussions, participants will develop core competencies in areas such as machine learning, statistical modeling, data visualization, textual analysis, and more.

Additionally, instructors will highlight cutting-edge methods like deep learning and neural networks tailored to social science research questions and data. Specific applications covered will align with research interests of participants, exploring relevant case studies and projects across the social sciences and beyond, in domains like political science, sociology, public health and epidemiology, communications, economics, and more.
