Admission Requirements

Applicants should preferably hold a Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field, such as the social sciences (e.g. Sociology, Political Science, Geography, Economics), technical disciplines (e.g. Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science), or a closely related area. We expect candidates to be familiar with quantitative research methods, as shown through strong academic performance in relevant courses, certifications, or professional experience.

Those with limited formal training in either domain may still be considered if they show strong motivation and a clear plan to pursue domain-specific or technical study upon admission. Relevant professional experience in policy analysis, demographic research, or data-driven social inquiry may also be considered.
