Overview

Mathematical Methods in the Social Sciences Program highlights

A central feature of modern social, behavioral, managerial and policy sciences is the use of mathematics and statistics, both as languages and as methods of abstraction and analysis.

The faculty at Northwestern University use a mathematical approach to social science in their research, and mathematics is a major component of graduate programs in the social sciences.

However, most traditional undergraduate programs in the social sciences do not incorporate mathematical approaches in an organized and consistent manner. Consequently, undergraduate students in traditional programs do not receive systematic preparation in mathematical modeling.
