Research Methods Workshops (SWARM)
Successfully run over the last several summers and attracting participants from the US, Europe and the Far East, Coller's Summer Workshops in Advanced Research Methods (SWARM) are 3 to 4-day state-of-the-art methodological workshops designed for junior faculty and PhD students in business and management and related fields (the social and medical sciences). Each workshop consists of 30 contact hours, with transfer credit available.
SWARM provides its participants with a hands-on setting for following the latest advances in statistical analysis, keeping up to date with available applications and improving their technique. Taught by scholars at the forefront of methodology design from the Coller School of Management, SWARM workshops are offered in several key sets of advanced research methods: advanced regression, structural equation modeling and multi-level modeling.
