PREDOC QSS Research Information Session

Thurs, April 20, 3:30-5:00, 134 MGH (Career & Internship Center lobby)

Have you ever considered a research career in the quantitative social sciences (QSS)?  Research in QSS is highly interdisciplinary and draws scholars from disciplines such as Economics, Psychology, Statistics, History, Accounting, Computer Science, Sociology, and many others. Researchers can use QSS methodologies to pose essential questions—such as whether bias can be eliminated from algorithms or the role of race in labor market outcomes—and create potential interventions. While the sky’s the limit for economics research, emerging scholars in the field have the added benefit of knowing that a QSS research track leads to plentiful and well-paid jobs. Not to mention that the academic pipeline in the quantitative social sciences comes with a lot more built-in monetary support than other educational paths.  But where to start? PREDOC’s QSS Research Careers Information Session will provide the answers.  Learn more here.
