CORE--QUANTITATIVE SCIENCES

量化科学核心的广泛目标是推进 量化的力量和效用，特别是统计和 霍普金斯的数学推理、建模和方法 人口中心(HPC)员工。此核心的新名称 (从数学和统计服务核心改变)认识到 HPC Associates对以下领域专业知识的需求不断扩大 定量科学，包括数理统计、应用统计学 统计计算、人口统计技术、数学 人口学、计量经济学和心理计量学。 量化科学核心将追求四个具体目标 在下一个授权期内： 1.担任量化科学顾问和合作者，以 HPC联营公司制定研究方案并进行 人口研究。 2.为HPC员工开展积极主动的教育计划 最新的定量研究方法。 3.促进有效使用最先进的统计软件 被同伙。 4.推进统计、数学、人口统计和计量经济学 提高人口研究质量的方法。 这些目标中的每一个都将加强 由HPC Associates进行的研究项目。

The broad objective of the Quantitative Sciences Core is to advance the force and utility of quantitative and, in particular, statistical and mathematical reasoning, modeling and methods among Hopkins Population Center (HPC) associates. The new name for this Core (changed from Mathematical and Statistical Services Core) recognizes the ever-broadening demands by HPC associates for expertise in quantitative science, including mathematical statistics, applied statistics statistical computing, demographic techniques, mathematical demography, econometrics, and psychometrics. The Quantitative Sciences Core will pursue four specific objectives during the next grant period: 1. To serve as quantitative science consultants and collaborators to HPC associates in developing research proposals and conducting population research. 2. To conduct proactive educational programs for HPC associates on state-of-the-art quantitative research methods. 3. To promote the effective use of state-of-the-art statistical software by associates. 4. To advance statistical, mathematical, demographic, and econometric methods to improve the quality of population research. Each of these objectives will strengthen the quality and efficiency of research projects conducted by HPC associates.
