This course explores the intersection of social theories and statistical analysis within social networks, focusing on structural dependence and its implications. Students will engage in hypothesis testing of social forces using empirical data, and will learn to construct networks and model longitudinal behavior with tools such as 'statnet' and 'RSiena.' Key terminology and the hierarchy of social link formation will be emphasized, alongside practical calculations of fundamental graph and network measures like Density and Degree. Additionally, students will differentiate between various network types and centrality measures, equipping them with a comprehensive understanding of social network analysis.

Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
