CORE--QUANTITATIVE SCIENCES

定量科学核心的总体目标是推进 定量的，特别是统计的， 霍普金斯的数学推理、建模和方法 人口中心（HPC）的同事。 此核心的新名称 （从数学和统计服务核心改为）承认 HPC员工对专业知识的需求不断扩大， 数量科学，包括数理统计、应用统计 统计计算、人口统计技术、数学 人口统计学、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 在下一个资助期内： 1.作为定量科学顾问和合作者， HPC协会在制定研究计划和进行 人口研究。 2.针对HPC员工开展主动式教育计划， 最先进的定量研究方法 3.促进有效使用最先进的统计软件 被同伙 4.推进统计学、数学、人口统计学和计量经济学 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员工进行的研究项目。

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.
