The Statistical Opportunity for Students (SOS) and SOS Extension programs help graduate students formulate and understand the statistical issues involved in their research projects and is open year-round. After the first free consultation, a written summary with recommendations is provided and then further help can be requested if/when needed (up to 3 hours).  Visit the SOS program page for full details. The SOS program is made possible through funding support from the Office of the Provost and Vice President, Research and Innovation.
