SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Webinar: Implications of Darknet Marketplace Shutdowns for Violence and Crime
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to be hosting Dr. Zainab Hans during our virtual lunch and learn session on July 29th from 12:00pm-1:00pm ET! Dr. Hans is a Research Investigator at the University of Michigan Institute for Firearm Injury Prevention (IFIP). She will be discussing \"Implications of Darknet Marketplace Shutdowns for Violence and Crime.\"\n\nDr. Hans is a Research Investigator at the University of Michigan Institute for Firearm Injury Prevention (IFIP) and Project Director for the research and evaluation component of the Byrne State Crisis Intervention Program in Michigan. She received her doctoral degree in Economics from Wayne State University and completed her postdoctoral fellowship at IFIP. Her research integrates economic theory and quasi-experimental methods to examine the socioeconomic and structural determinants of interpersonal violence\, firearm injury\, and related public health outcomes. Her work spans intimate partner violence\, child abuse\, housing policy\, and firearm injury prevention\, with a particular focus on how macroeconomic factors and structural disadvantage shape vulnerability to violence across populations.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Art of the Resume Bullet Point for Graduate Students
DESCRIPTION:Building a network and connecting with others is critical to your professional development in graduate school and job/internship searches. Join this discussion to learn strategies for building your network (including tips on using LinkedIN and the University Career Alumni Network)and how to leverage this network for career exploration and job/internship searching. There will be plenty of time for your questions! This event is intended to be interactive and therefore a recording will not be available.Brought to you by the University Career Center\, in partnership with Rackham Graduate School. Register here: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/103771 #UCC

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:June 2 - July 30\, 2026 T/TH  Course - Sampling in Practice
DESCRIPTION:June 2-July 30\, 2026\, T/TH\n1:00pm - 3:00pm\nA live course via Zoom. Registration and payment are required a minimum of two weeks prior to the start of the course.\n\nFounded in 1948\, the Summer Institute in Survey Research Techniques is designed specifically to meet the needs of professionals and graduate students seeking to deepen their expertise in survey methodology and data collection. Offered through the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science within the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan\, the program provides a rigorous and flexible curriculum that blends theoretical foundations with practical application — entirely online.\n\nSampling in Practice\n\nUnlocking the art and science of sampling with an applied\, hands-on approach\, the course Sampling in Practice is designed for applied practitioners who want to master real-world sampling techniques through active learning and practical programming. Students will learn about probability sampling methods\, including simple random sampling\, stratification\, systematic selection\, cluster sampling\, probability proportional to size sampling\, and multistage sampling. We will also cover sampling cost models\, sampling error estimation techniques\, non-sampling errors\, missing data\, and nonprobability samples. The course emphasizes practical implementation\, featuring interactive coding exercises and in-class examples to reinforce each concept. A culminating project will give students the opportunity to integrate multiple techniques into a comprehensive sample design and demonstrate the profession in designing surveys\, selecting subjects\, analyzing sample data\, and solving real sampling problems using modern statistical tools.\n\nWhy take this course? \n\nThe course is crafted for students and practitioners eager: \n\nTo build proficiency in modern sampling techniques through active engagement and practical coding experience\nTo understand the basic ideas\, concepts and principles of probability sampling from an applied perspective\nTo be able to identify and appropriately apply sampling techniques to survey design problems\nTo understand and be able to assess the impact of the sample design on survey estimates\nTo be able to compute the sample size for a variety of sample designs\nTo learn how to design and select a probability sample involving complex sampling techniques in a survey project\, and receive expert feedback on a sampling report. \n\nYajuan Si is a Research Associate Professor in the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science\, located within in the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan. She holds a Ph.D. in statistical science from Duke and received postdoctoral training at Columbia. Yajuan’s research focuses on methodology development\, from data analysis to study design\, in streams of Bayesian statistics\, linking design- and model-based approaches for survey inference\, data integration\, missing data analysis\, confidentiality protection\, and causal inference\, with applications in the social and health sciences.
