Program in Quantitative Social Science
About
The Program in Quantitative Social Science (QSS) brings together Dartmouth faculty and students who are interested in applying statistical, computational, and mathematical tools to social science questions. QSS offers undergraduates a minor and a major, both of which combine quantitative training with one or more of the social sciences. Through QSS, Dartmouth undergraduates can integrate the power of modern quantitative and computational methods with the substance of a social science discipline.

On Wednesday, March 11, students majoring and minoring in Quantitative Social Science presented their one-quarter culminating projects at a poster session in Kemeny Hall. The poster session was the final requirement for QSS 82, taught this winter term by Assistant Professor Keng-Chi Chang. Students demonstrated their ability to apply quantitative skills to a social science issue of their own choosing. Projects completed this term spanned a wide range of titles from "Rent Burdens and Fertility" to "Sports Analytics in Sumo Wrestling."
