The Quantitative Collaborative (QC) connects researchers across disciplines and schools, by bringing together students and faculty in a common discussion of quantitative research, especially in the social sciences.  By providing support for cutting-edge research informed by sophisticated quantitative methodologies and by bringing high-profile scholars from beyond the University to discuss their work, the QC will work to shape the next generation of thinking in the social sciences.
