What is DDSS?
DDSS supports research at the technical and methodological forefront of quantitative inquiry in the social sciences. We emphasize innovation, impact, tool-creation, and multidisciplinary community-building.
To facilitate state-of-the-art social science research at Princeton, we offer funding opportunities, technical consultations, advanced workshops and training, interdisciplinary events, and research software engineering expertise.
Featured Projects
Funding Proposals
We offer two types of funding for innovative quantitative research, depending on the scope and technical requirements of the project. We invite large-scale grant proposals twice a year. Small-scale grant applications are considered on a rolling basis.
Consultations
Specific Technical Issues
For help on specific technical or coding issues, please fill in our consultation form. We particularly encourage you to consult the expertise of our DDSS Graduate Fellows. Find additional information and resources on our Consultation and Support page.
Core and Research Software Engineering Consultation
For broader questions that requires the advanced expertise of our core technical staff, including requests for research software engineering consultation, please email [email protected] with a description of your project and reason for your request.
Calls for Research Software Engineering Support
DDSS welcomes proposals for research software engineering (RSE) support (faculty only). Small-scale (2-4 weeks project time) proposals are considered on a rolling basis; large-scale (3-12 months) proposals are announced based on RSE availability.
