The International Laboratory for Applied Network Research NRU HSE develops and tests new methods for analyzing network data, applying them in empirical research in various scientific fields. The ANR-Lab members get represented by researchers from sociology, political science, economics, management, mathematics, statistics, computer linguistics, and computer science. We maintain cooperation with Russian and international scientists and research groups working in the field of network analysis.
In the autumn of 2017, our Lab launched the master's programme 'Data Analytics and Social Statistics' (previously – 'Applied Statistics with Network Analysis').
