OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Our hybrid Oxford Spring School in Advanced Research Methods offers graduate students and researchers from universities across the UK and abroad a unique opportunity to learn cutting-edge methods in Social Science.
The week-long Spring School is now in its 20th year and consists of five core courses in quantitative and qualitative methods. Participants who choose to attend one of these courses will also be invited to attend additional research methodology classes along with the full Spring School cohort in the mornings.
The course options are:
Data Analysis for the Social Sciences, taught by Spyros Kosmidis (Oxford);
Causal Inference, taught by Vicente Valentim (Oxford);
Text Analysis, taught by Tom O’Grady (UCL);
Qualitative Methods, taught by Marnie Howlett (Oxford);
Machine Learning, taught by Andreas Murr (Warwick); and
You can only attend one of the five core course options, as they will run alongside each other in the afternoon. Find out more about the courses here www.politics.ox.ac.uk/research-centre/spring-school/course-options.
