Swedish registers are a unique and powerful resource, enabling efficient and cost-effective investigation of a range of research questions.
The Swedish Interdisciplinary Graduate School in Register-Based Research (SINGS) is a comprehensive two-year programme focusing on methodological, practical, ethical, and legal aspects of using registers in research.
It aims to deepen knowledge and enhance skills on effective use of registers in research, making it relevant to all quantitative disciplines.
Open to doctoral students at any Swedish university, it includes seven core and nine elective course weeks, with students required to earn at least 12 credits.
To further create a stimulating and international environment, it offers seminars on cutting-edge methodological topics.
Karolinska Institutet coordinates the school, with participation from six other Swedish universities and two international collaborators. Since 2010, SINGS has had a crucial role in fostering the next generation of researchers. Seven cohorts of students have been admitted. More than 700 students and over 100 teachers from different universities and research fields have taken part.
Eighty courses have been held.
This updated version of SINGS builds on its success and includes new collaborators and educational activities on emerging topics, thus enabling the further development of the highest academic standards with a strong pedagogical, methodological, and interdisciplinary profile in register-based research.
