The Quantitative Methods in Education (QME) track in the Department of Educational Psychology at the University of Minnesota offers training in measurement, evaluation, statistics, and statistics education leading to the M.A. and Ph.D. degrees. QME provides students with broad but rigorous methodological skills so graduates can conduct research on methodologies, help to train others in methodology, or conduct research in related fields. Graduates find a job market in academia, industry, and government eager to employ people with these skills.
