Seminar General Statistics
The Seminar General Statistics is organized for Research Master students and PhD students of the faculty GMW. The seminars (topics) will be based on a title in the Sage University Papers Series on Quantitative Applications in the Social Sciences (the small green books, available in the library). For each seminar, the number of the Sage title on which it is based is presented in the program below. These titles can be used as references.
Program 2011 - 2012
* For this topic is useful to follow the preceding seminar on Probability Theory.
