Statistical Consulting Clinic

Free statistical advice is available through the Statistical Clinic, located on the St. Paul Campus. It is staffed by graduate students and supervised by faculty and staff from the School of Statistics. The consultants provide help on a wide range of questions, and can call on faculty for problems they cannot solve. Hours are posted online. This service is limited to in-person consultations made by appointment; walk-in, telephone, and email consultations are not available.

To make an appointment, please email clinic@stat.umn.edu with your full name, your department (avoiding abbreviations), your university affiliation (faculty, student, or staff), and a brief summary of your statistical issues. If you are a student or staff, please also provide the name of your advisor or supervising faculty member, if appropriate.

To make sure your message isn't filtered as spam, please include the phrase "statistical consulting appointment" somewhere in the title or body of the email.

Before you come, please read about our expectations and eligibility requirements.

Clinic Hours

One hour appointments for free statistical advice are available Monday through Thursday from 9am-12pm.

Status of Statistical Consulting for 2009-2010

We are pleased to announce that a limited amount of no-cost statistical consulting by the Statistical Consulting Service of the School of Statistics will continue to be available for all University researchers for the 2009-2010 school year.

However, the funding and availability of this service is limited compared to past years, and is not guaranteed for subsequent years. We therefore ask your college, department, or graduate program to consider paying a portion of our costs proportional to your usage. See main page for details.

As in past years, the best way to ensure availability of service for future projects is to include funding for statistical support in grant proposals.

Please contact Aaron Rendahl, Consulting Manager with any questions.
