What is the difference between the ICPSR Summer Program and the Survey Research Center Summer Institute?
The primary difference between the two Program’s is that SRC focuses on survey methodology, while ICPSR concentrates on quantitative methodology. Roughly, this means that they teach you how to design and conduct a survey, and that we teach you how to analyze and interpret the data. While the two programs complement each other nicely, and while they are both under the auspices of the University of Michigan’s Institute for Social Research, they are not in fact linked in any way.
