The Department of Statistics operates a consulting service in which advanced graduate students, under faculty supervision, are available as consultants during specified hours in the fall and spring semesters. The service is associated with the course Statistics 272, which may be taken for credit.

You are encouraged to use this service for statistical advice at any stage of your research. You are especially encouraged to come in early in your research so that the consultants may be helpful at the design stage.

Consulting is free to members of the campus community. Some problems may be outside our scope; if so, we will not provide service beyond the initial consultation.
