Welcome to STK4900/9900 Spring 2017!

Welcome to STK4900/9900! The first intensive part of the course takes place in week 7, from 13th-17th of February. We will have lectures every day from 9.15-12.00, then there will be a lunch break, followed by exercises and R-exercises in groups. Following recommendations from the students last year, we shorten the lunch break and start with exercises from 12.45-15.30; hence finishing half an hour before. One group will have R-exercises 12.45-14.00 and exercises 14.15-15.30; the second group will start with exercises 12.45-14.00 and have R-exercises 14.15-15.30.

As a preparation to the first part of the course, the students are encouraged to recapitulate the main themes of Chapters 6, 7, 10 and 11 in the course book for STK1000; see here for details (or the similar material in another introductory book in statistics).
