About QMP

The Quantitative Methodology Program (QMP) is an interdisciplinary research program at the Survey Research Center (SRC) of the Institute for Social Research (ISR) at the University of Michigan. QMP faculty develop innovative methods at the intersections of interventions science, social science, and statistical science. QMP also facilitates the training of graduate students and post-doctoral fellows who will contribute in significant ways to the development of statistical methodology for the advancement of empirical social and behavioral sciences research. We are located on the second floor of the new wing of the ISR Thompson Street building.
