DescriptionPrimary instructors have full responsibility for teaching an established or self-designed course that is part of the regular undergraduate curriculum, developed in collaboration with the home department and Summer Session, which is offered based on departmental and student needs. Survey Data Analysis overviews the way scientific surveys are conducted, the survey data structure, and common techniques to analyze survey data. Students will explore the actual survey data (using major surveys such as the General Social Survey) and look for answers to their research question. Students will learn where to find information about survey data sources and how to conduct analyses for their research project. The course also introduces some online tools and statistical software. This course is part of the Summer Institute in Social Research Methods. It is taught in an intensive, condensed format; this 100-unit course meets 6 hours per week for 5 weeks, for a total of 30 contact hours from June 21-July 23. There is no reading or exam period for summer quarter courses; final exams are given during the last class session. All instructors must coordinate with their co-instructors and teaching assistants, where applicable.
