MacEwan University’s Department of Mathematics and Statistics is pleased to announce the launch of the new Statistical Consulting Centre. 

Statistics is a critical part of the empirical research process, providing the theoretical and applied background to guide study design, choice of statistical tools and interpretation of results. As MacEwan’s scholarly output continues to grow, it is highly beneficial for researchers across the university to have access to trained statisticians who can help support their work.

The Statistical Consulting Centre, which is officially open as of January 23, provides statistical support for MacEwan’s faculty and student researchers. This support includes:

  • Planning stage consultation
    • Experiment design
    • Sample size
    • Confounding and lurking influences
  • Data analysis
  • Results interpretation
  • Writing and reporting support

The centre is staffed by faculty in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, as well as students who receive paid employment or course credit through their work with the centre.

In addition to consultation services, watch for educational opportunities through the Statistical Consulting Centre in the near future, including workshops and seminars for faculty and students.

If you or one of your students could benefit from assistance with the statistical elements of your research, contact the Statistical Consulting Centre at STATShelp@macewan.ca.
