• Students enroll in the program to develop skills in using quantitative, statistical, and measurement models in applied research settings. Data science and quantitative analysis are some of the most modern and exciting professions available in the workforce. 
  • Students work closely with Quantitative Methods faculty members to develop expertise in both the theory and application of quantitative analysis in behavioral, social, and educational sciences. Upon graduation, you’ll be equipped to apply research in school systems, health and medical settings, government and industry, dedicated research institutes, and other academic settings.
  • The master’s degree in Quantitative Methods is a two-year program that culminates in the summer- or semester-long internship in which students provide design, measurement, and statistical support for a public or private organization in Nashville or the broader research community. Students will be placed in an internship based on their quantitative methods skills and interests, using their training in research design, measurement, and statistical software skills.
