KU Trade War Lab

The KU Trade War Lab supports funded research, offers student research training, facilitates exchange with other academic centers, and enables campus outreach on the politics of trade and conflict. We emphasize a collaborative, multi-method approach to research that combines qualitative and quantitative perspectives. Student research assistants assist with research data collection, analysis, and developing products for dissemination to scholarly audiences and other stakeholders. TWL research assistants receive training in survey research methodology, statistical analysis, and gain proficiency in Excel and R programming.
