The Quantitative Methods in the Social Sciences (QMSS) Seminar Series is designed to expose students in the QMSS degree program to different methods and practices of social science research. Seminar presentations are given on a wide range of topics by faculty from Columbia and other New York City universities, as well as researchers from private, government, and non-profit settings. QMSS students participate in a weekly seminar. Speakers include faculty from Columbia and other universities, and researchers from the numerous corporate, government, and non-profit settings where quantitative research tools are used.

QMSS seminars are open to the Columbia University and ISERP communities. Prospective students to the program are invited to attend, as well.
