CSSS Math Camp 2019 (UW Seattle, 9/9-9/13/2019)

Posted: 6/3/2019 (Conference)

Math Camp is designed to prepare social science graduate students for advanced courses in statistical methodology. Offered each year before autumn quarter classes begin, Math Camp is an intensive one-week introduction to fundamental concepts of mathematics and probability. Students need not have prior exposure to this material, but should have basic math skills through high school algebra. The aim is to provide students with the conceptual foundation, basic tools, and confidence necessary to successfully undertake future study of statistics in the social sciences. Key concepts are presented in lecture, and students have an opportunity to work through problem sets with the assistance of a TA. Lecture notes and web materials are publicly available, so students may refresh their memories of key concepts and tools before embarking on CSSS courses.
