As well as conducting regular surveys of the cohorts, CLS delivers a strong interdisciplinary research programme based on the cohorts, and programmes of research on survey methodology and statistical methods. Our academic staff specialise in applying advanced quantitative methods to the cohort data to produce high quality research and inform policy in areas such as education, health, labour markets, child development, child and adult wellbeing, and ageing.<br /><br />Suitably experienced Social Research Organisation are encouraged to apply for this opportunity.<br /><br />Please note:<br />UCL is not a "contracting authority" or a "body governed by public law" as defined by the new Procurement Act 2024.
