Educational research maintains a well-established practice of utilizing cutting-edge statistical and psychometric (psychological measurement) methods. Scholars across all education disciplines create assessment tools, plan and execute experiments and surveys, and interpret the data gathered from these endeavors. This longstanding focus has made quantitative methods a dedicated specialization in educational psychology. Professionals in this field teach, advise educational researchers, and investigate statistical and psychometric applications in education-related domains. The program provides two primary specializations: statistics and measurement.
Quantitative methods studies benefit from the diverse resources at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, incorporating classes in statistics, mathematics, computer science, and other departments within the School of Education.
