Workshop Announcement: Conducting Empirical Legal Scholarship at Northwestern

By Lawrence Solum

The upcoming Conducting Empirical Legal Scholarship Workshop presented by Northwestern University School of Law and Washington University School of Law, will take place May 25-27, 2011, at Northwestern University School of Law in Chicago. 

The Conducting Empirical Legal Scholarship workshop is for law school faculty interested in learning about empirical research. Leading empirical scholars, Lee Epstein, and Andrew D. Martin will teach the workshop, which provides the formal training necessary to design, conduct, and assess empirical studies, and to use statistical software (Stata) to analyze and manage data. Participants need no background or knowledge of statistics to enroll in the workshop. 

I hope you will forward this information on to any other scholars you think may benefit from the workshop.  For more detailed information including the schedule, please visit http://www.law.northwestern.edu/faculty/empiricalworkshop/.  In addition to paying by check you may also pay by credit card. Graduates students receive 50% off the registration fee.

If you have any questions, I can be reached at (312) 503-1570 or michael-cooper@law.northwestern.edu.
