Introduction to Social Network Analysis

A 2-Day Seminar Taught by Stephen Borgatti, Ph.D.

To see a sample of the course materials, click here.

To register the MAC address you must have either a valid UCInetID, or for those who don't have UCInetID, you may use the Guest Registration system. Details on how to do both are below. Note: Peer to Peer (P2P) Applications Are Not Allowed Over the Wireless Network Two Ways to Register. A comprehensive package for the analysis of social network data as well as other 1-mode and 2-mode data. Can read and write a multitude of differently formatted text files, as well as Excel files.

Interest in social networks has been climbing exponentially since the 1970s. For social scientists, networks can be seen as a fundamental adaptation that facilitates both the coordination and distribution of resources, while simultaneously maintaining the flexibility of independent agents. For physical scientists, networks can be seen as universal structures underlying everything from molecules to galaxies. And for mathematicians and computer scientists, networks provide an abstract and propitious way of representing problems.

The field of social network analysis consists of a vocabulary of theoretical and mathematical concepts for investigating network phenomena, along with a distinctive data model and set of methodologies for collecting and analyzing network data. This course provides an introduction to doing research on social networks. The course is very hands-on, emphasizing mastering the software and using the concepts and methods to answer research questions. It also covers use of network analysis in applied settings such as management consulting and criminology.

Computing

We will use the UCINET software package, which can be downloaded from http://tinyurl.com/ucinet. The software is not free, but can be used on a trial basis for 60 days. Please download the 32-bit version only. The course is heavily hands-on, so you must bring a laptop with UCINET installed. Power outlets will be provided at each seat.

Mac

Note that UCINET is a Windows program and will not run on a Mac except through Boot Camp or a Windows emulator like Parallels. Knowledgeable Mac and Linux users have also been known to successfully run UCINET on WINE, but the instructor is a Windows user and will not be able to help you with this.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

This course assumes no prior knowledge of network analysis, but does assume some background in social science research methods, including survey design and simple regression analysis. It is also helpful but not necessary to be familiar with the basics of matrix algebra, particularly matrix multiplication.

Pre-Workshop Reading

To prepare for the seminar, the instructor recommends reading his book on network analysis, which is available on Amazon. Borgatti, S. P., Everett, M. G., & Johnson, J. C. (2013). Analyzing social networks. SAGE Publications Limited.

LOCATION, FORMAT AND MATERIALS

The class will meet from 9 am to 5 pm each day with a 1-hour lunch break at Temple University Center City, 1515 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103.

Participants receive a bound manual containing detailed lecture notes (with equations and graphics), examples of computer printout, and many other useful features. This book frees participants from the distracting task of note taking.

Registration and lodging

The fee of $995.00 includes all seminar materials.

Refund Policy

If you cancel your registration at least two weeks before the course is scheduled to begin, you are entitled to a full refund (minus a processing fee of $50).

RECENT COMMENTS FROM PARTICIPANTS

'Dr. Borgatti is knowledgeable and very responsive to participants' questions. This course has prepared me to start using SNA in my own research and also has provided a great theoretical frame for this kind of work. Excellent course.'
Erika Feinauer, Brigham Young University

'Stephen Borgatti's course is unique in that you're being taught by one of the leading academics in the SNA field. His breadth of experience in the method and literature is extremely helpful to understanding the context of the method. He is also very open to questions related to your own specific research areas and will apply these questions and ideas to what he covers in the course.'
Justin Vinton, Rutgers University

'Treating myself to two days of immersion in SNA was a worthwhile investment! Having come in with network research questions, I was able to refine my analytic approach over the two days. Having some previous background in SNA allowed me to do this. I treated it as an intermediate class!'
Melissa McDaniels, Michigan State University

Gran turismo 6 key generator free download. 'This course is a great introductory course for social network analysis. It covers a great deal of socio-metric networks and provides an informed stepping stone even for persons naïve to the field.'
Noah Kiwanuka, Makerere University

'I have been working on SNA research for almost a year and this course was really helpful to 'order' and get a better understanding of SNA concepts and methods. Great applied examples, and great disposition from the instructor to discuss different topics, examples, and questions.'
Matias Placencio Castro, Boston College

'This is a great course. Amazing, very knowledgeable, extremely approachable and helpful instructor. I had taken two previous network courses and this was hands down the most educational, instructional, and helpful.'
Anonymous

'This workshop provides an excellent foundational understanding of how to conduct network analysis from both a methodological and conceptual standpoint. It is great for quantitative or qualitative researchers in any field.'
Kari Roberts, National High Magnetic Field Laboratory

'I highly recommend Dr. Borgatti's course! It's very rare to have the chance to interact with such an expert! And he's super friendly! Statistical Horizons staff are very helpful and friendly too! Things are very well organized!'
Zhi Tang, Rochester Institute of Technology

'I did not know what SNA was until I was asked by my boss to help write a grant and do SNA. We got the funding. So I decided to teach myself SNA. I used Steve Borgatti's videos on YouTube and also read his book and materials. Alas, I produced the visuals but still wasn't sure I knew what I was doing. Came to this class and it was it was one of the best experiences. Steve was very easy to understand, was patient in explaining concepts, and readily answered questions. Helped me with personal data questions I had for my projects. Very hands-on class. Thank you, Steve, I learned a lot from this 2-day workshop. I will be applying for more grants in this area for sure.'

In order for you to get Internet access from anywhere on-campus or in residential housing ('ResNet'), you will first need to register the hardware (MAC) address of either your mobile device (smartphone, laptop or tablet) or Ethernet card (wired connection in some computers). This can be done automatically using the Express Registration Tool or manually.

To register the MAC address you must have either a valid UCInetID, or for those who don't have UCInetID, you may use the Guest Registration system. Details on how to do both are below.

Note: Peer to Peer (P2P) Applications Are Not Allowed Over the Wireless Network

Two Ways to Register

1. Express Registration

From your mobile device select the network 'UCInet Mobile Access' (or 'Resnet Mobile Access' if you are living in undergrad housing) and then open a web browser and try to connect to any web page. You should be redirected to our Express Registration ('ExpressReg') page where you will be guided through the registration process. Refer to the directions below.

If you are not automatically redirected, please visit the website https://oit.uci.edu/reg and select the 'ExpressReg' option. Alternatively, you may select the 'Device Registration' option to manually register your device (NOTE: You must have a UCInetID in order to complete the manual registration process).

The two most common reasons why users struggle to connect are:

  • they have a Static IP set on their device (e.g. IP address of 192.168.1.4 for example)
  • they have a Static DNS address set on their device (e.g. you cannot use Google DNS addresses like 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4 during the Express Registration process)

Please ensure that your network settings are set to DHCP and remove these settings. By doing this, your device will automatically grab an IP address and DNS address from the network. Failure to remove these static settings will prevent you from connecting.

If you are still having trouble, please feel free to stop by our walk-in help desk at Aldrich Hall, Room 115 between 9-5, M-F or you may contact the Help Desk at (949) 824-2222.

Visitor Access Restrictions

We offer limited access to visitors to the UCI campus. The following restrictions apply to visitors using UCInet Mobile Access:

  1. Visitor access to the UCI network is granted for a 24-hour period, and they may only register 7 times in a 30-day period.
    • From Memorial Day to Labor Day, we extend access to 7 days because of the influx of visitors during the summer who attend the CAMP & COSMOS programs. Visitors who are here longer than 7 days will need to re-register their devices weekly.
  2. Visitor access is restricted to web traffic (HTTP and HTTPS), email (IMAP and authenticated SMTP) and SSH.

If you need longer access than what is provided by Visitor Registration, a UCI faculty or staff member may register you as aguest under their UCInetID for up to 4 weeks using Manual Registration (see Manual Registration tab above). For longer stays, you may be able eligible for a Sponsored UCInetID.

UCI also participates in Eduroam for visiting academics.

Other Wireless Networks on Campus

Besides UCInet Mobile Access, there are several other networks/SSIDs you can connect to. Below are the network SSID names, along with their requirements:

  • eduroam - No MAC registration is required.

The following two SSIDs are visible on campus in the School of Health Sciences and the Gottschalk Medical Plaza. They are meant solely for HS users. Marvel spider man pc game download utorrent.

  • UCIClinic-PSK - Registered MAC required and you must know your HS username and password (mostly used for mobile devices in the clinics). Non-broadcast. The address space is 128.195.144.0/25.
  • UCIMCNetMD - No MAC registration required, but you must know the SSID password (used for medical devices - unfortunately OIT does not have this password). Broadcast. The address space is 10.255.106.0/24.

UCI Medical Center Wi-Fi

The UCI Medical Center (UCIMC) has instructions on how to join their wi-fi network in Orange. The SSID in Orange is called UCIHealth (the password is ucirvineaccess).

Subletting Your Apartment

If you live in grad housing and are planning to sublet your apartment, it's important to realize if your subletter is not affiliated with UCI (meaning they don't have a UCInetID), then they will not have internet access automatically.

In order for the subletter to have internet access, you will need to manually register their devices' MAC addresses under your UCInetID. We suggest you send them this link which tells them how to find a MAC address on many different types of devices, and once they provide you with the addresses you'll need to use our Mobile Access Registration tool to register all of them.

By registering their devices under your UCInetID, you accept fullresponsibility for anything they do while using our network.
