Visitors Program DCMS

Data Center of Management Science, NSFC-PKU

Visiting Scholars Program

 

Data Center of Management Science (DCMS), NSFC-PKU, established in Dec. 2014, is a key initiative for data collection and service sponsored by the China Natural Science Foundation. As a teaching and research entity directly affiliated to Peking University, the mission of DCMS is to promote data collection, data management and service, and policy-oriented empirical research. As an integral part of DCMS, the DCMS think tank aims to develop an open research platform through supporting research projects and hosting visiting scholars. In addition, our think-tank promotes and disseminates research findings and policy studies based on quantitative analysis. Empirical research using data from China Family Panel Studies (CFPS, http://www.isss.edu.cn/cfps/EN/) and China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Studies (CHARLS, http://charls.ccer.edu.cn/en) is particularly encouraged.
