Training & Opportunities
ISR is committed to training the next generation of social scientists, and to providing the highest quality continuing education to professionals working in the fields of survey research and data analysis.
Diversity
- Strong, impactful social science research requires diverse cadres of scholars who can fully engage in all aspects of the research process.
- The high quality social science at ISR requires teams composed of staff and faculty whose contributions are understood to be equally valuable.
- We believe in a responsibility to share social science research resources broadly with scholars who are members of groups that are underrepresented in academic research.
