UBC-SFU Joint Graduate Student Seminar Series

The UBC Department of Statistics and the SFU Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science jointly host two seminars per year, one in the fall organized by the students from SFU and one in the spring organized by the students from UBC. These seminars are intended to be informal, and at a level accessible to graduate students. To this end, three students and one faculty member from each university share their interest and experience in Statistics. We aim at providing a place for graduate students to present their research, sharpen their presentation skills, seek potential collaboration opportunities, and interact with other students in their field. The seminar conveniently takes place in downtown Vancouver, at the SFU Harbour Centre facility near Waterfront Skytrain Station, and is easily accessible by transit.
