Welcome to AQMeN
The Applied Quantitative Methods Network (AQMeN) is led by a team of academics from eight Universities in Scotland. It is a three year project funded jointly by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and the Scottish Funding Council (SFC) as part of the ESRC Quantitative Methods Initiative.
Our main objective is to build capacity in the use of intermediate and advanced level quantitative methods amongst the social science community in Scotland and beyond. About AQMeN
