We have a regular working seminar in various topics in computational statistics on Friday afternoons. Each semester and during the summer, we choose some topic of interest and meet to discuss the topic.

Sometimes we work through a recent monograph on the chosen topic, and sometimes we experiment with one or more computer packages. Sometimes we do small Monte Carlo studies, which participants may follow with larger MC studies. We often do live computations with a computer and projector.

The idea is to have some fun and to learn something.

Students can register for the seminar for 1 hour of credit. Many of the attendees, however, are just faculty or students who want to learn something and who don't need the credit.

Students interested in obtaining one hour of credit for their participation can register for the appropriate section of CSI 991.
