It hosts 25+ specialized collections of data in education, health, aging, criminal justice, substance abuse, terrorism, and other fields. ICPSR’s educational activities include the Summer Program in Quantitative Methods of Social Research, a comprehensive curriculum of intensive courses in research design, statistics, data analysis, and methodology.

With data on economics, political science, public health and so much more, there is a wealth of information for the people and projects you support!
