    THIS WORKSHOP HAS BEEN CANCELED UNDER THE UNIVERSITY'S DIRECTIVE TO MOVE ALL CLASSES ONLINE.

    This workshop aims to cover a comprehensive introduction to analyzing network data. Participants will be introduced to techniques of network analysis such as calculating network statistics (e.g. transitivity, dyad and triad census), basic network regression, and exponential random graph models (ERGMs). I assume that participants have no prior knowledge of network analysis and only basic familiarity with R. Example code will be provided.
