Statistical Advisory Service

Do you need statistical advice?

Do you need help:

  • designing an experiment?
  • planning a survey?
  • analyzing data?
  • interpreting results?

The Statistical Advisory Service is operated by the Department of Statistics in the Faculty of Science. In addition to providing assistance to faculty members and graduate students on campus, members of the Statistical Advisory Service:

  • participate in collaborative research projects
  • conduct research in statistical methodology
  • act as a resource for clients from government and industry
  • provide training in statistical consulting to graduate students in statistics


In the past, seminars and workshops on a variety of statistical topics have also been developed and conducted by consultants for research groups and organizations.

Please see the access page if you are interested in contacting the advisory service.
