The GESIS Summer School offers high quality training in state of the art techniques and methods of survey research.

This Summer School is unique in Europe with its focus on Survey Methodology and data collection.


The GESIS Summer School does not only give a broad overview of survey methods, but provides an opportunity to deeply engage with the different tasks of survey design and implementation (such as questionnaire design, sampling, nonresponse and fieldwork monitoring), different survey modes (such as personal interviews and web surveys), research designs involving surveys (such as mixed methods, factorial surveys, longitudinal surveys and cross-national surveys) as well as data management. The courses offer engaging instruction in state-of-the-art knowledge and application oriented skills, provided by an international team of survey specialists. The instructors come from a diverse set of countries and fields, and applicants from all countries and fields are welcomed.
