Arizona Methods Workshops 2013
Please join us for the 3rd annual series of Arizona Methods Workshops. These 2-3 day workshops are open to everyone and are hosted by the Department of Sociology at the University of Arizona, where all workshops are held. The goal is to share the methodological expertise of our department and college with the wider community of social scientists. The workshop topics and instructors vary from year to year; this year we are offering eight workshops January 3-8, 2013. Tack on a few days to enjoy a January vacation in sunny Tucson!
