The IPSA-NUS Summer School 2021 Completed

The 10th-anniversary edition of the IPSA-NUS Summer School for Social Science Research Methods was held on 5-16 July 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and to allow international participants to attend, the Methods School was held online for the second year in a row.
