The modules offer a mix of social network theory (e.g., strength of weak ties, embeddedness, social capital), methodology (e.g., collecting network data), mathematical concepts (e.g., eigenvectors, ls-sets) and hands-on software training (e.g., UCINET, NetDraw, SIENA). The hallmark of our workshops is clarity of exposition.
The workshop is appropriate for faculty and graduate students, as well as practitioners in management, health and security fields. Last year we accepted 70 participants, about half of whom were PhD students. Students pay half price. The workshop is held on the University of Kentucky campus, June 1-5.
