Courses in the summer semester 2024

This course is aimed at Master's students in the 3rd or 4th semester of the Master's program in Applied Statistics and deals with various topics from the field of multivariate statistics
Among other things, this course teaches content from the fields of generalized linear models, distribution regression and non-parametric regression and is aimed at students of the Master's program in Applied Statistics.
The aim of this course is to provide an introduction to the use of the statistical software R. First, the basic operation and use of the software and its syntax will be described. The possibilities of statistical analysis are then explained.
Students learn the basic concepts of descriptive, explorative and inductive statistics. They will be able to critically scrutinize the assumptions on which the methods are based and, based on this assessment, select a suitable method for a given problem and will be able to implement the methods covered in statistical software, interpret the results obtained and communicate the results to cooperation partners.
As part of the statistical modeling practical course, students work on an application problem in groups of up to four people using statistical modeling methods. The statistical modeling internship is usually carried out in cooperation with a practice partner.
At the conclusion of the course, students will have the ability to know fundamental concepts in statistical computing and address large-scale problems by employing efficient methods, considering the computational resources available.

Courses in the winter semester 2023/24

The statistics lecture in the Bachelor's degree programs in economics provides a general overview of statistical methods and is the basis for many advanced courses.
In this course, the first introductions to in-depth inference approaches and modeling techniques are discussed. This includes an excursion into Bayesian statistics and various learning methods, as well as modeling approaches beyond linear models, such as quantile regression.
This seminar discusses important work in the field of geostatistics and spatial modeling. The course is aimed at Master's students on the Applied Statistics course in the 3rd or 4th semester.
This course offers an introduction to stochastic processes and spatial statistics.
