------------------------------

This weekly workshop highlights the work of those pioneering data science
analytical techniques and social science and computation methods while
bringing together graduate students, post-docs, and faculty all working at
the nexus of computation and big, social science questions. The workshop
also allows regular participants to share works in progress for feedback,
fosters robust dialogue between young scholars in these emerging fields,
and showcases local scholars leading pedagogical seminars on new papers or
methods.

The 2018-2019 Computation Workshop
