This applied element is particularly important given the abstract and highly theoretical nature of much teaching in quantitative methods. Formative assessment will enable you to develop a 3,000-word report on a chosen policy area with complementary code and microsimulation output to be uploaded to an osf.io repository following feedback from the module teaching team. Read more...
