| Applied Statistics Team - from left: Michael Cooper, Elies Kouider and Nathaniel Tymes are pictured with FSU President David Eisler. This team was developed in 2003 when its members recognized a need to increase student access to statistics expertise by consolidating office hours for Statistics faculty. The team also wanted to help increase the level of faculty development and scholarship among faculty and staff in the College of Business and the University as a whole by starting a monthly colloquium that involves all disciplines within the college. Most recently, the team started a Research Consulting Center to assist all faculty and staff within the Uuniversity and the community at-large, with plans to conduct workshops for all faculty and staff. |
