Statistics Consulting Center

The Statistics Consulting Center (SCC) is a service center under the Division of Statistics and Data Science in the Department of Mathematical Sciences.

Mission: Foster interdisciplinary collaboration among researchers at UC with an interest in statistical data analysis.

SCC currently provides free statistical consulting services to faculty and graduate students working under the supervision of faculty at the University of Cincinnati for their research.

Faculty or graduate students needing help may stop by without appointment during a "walk-in" Stat Consulting clinic hours published below, or request a scheduled appointment by filling in the request form below. Both clinic hours and the scheduled appointment are always held by a senior faculty member affiliated with SCC. Student consultants may sit in sessions as part of their training.

List of Statistical Methods on Which SCC Currently Provides Consulting Services:

We expect to provide assistance in the areas such as:

  • Experimental Design
  • Exploratory Data Analysis
  • Model fitting
  • Interpretation of the Results

SCC will be supported by the Faculty Enrichment Center (FEC). Researchers can obtain consulting services by appointment or by "walk-in" service as described below.

"Walk-in" Stat Consulting Clinic

Here, researchers can stop by to get quick help with short questions regarding their statistical analysis, such as determining which statistical methods to use or discussing the scope of help that SCC can provide for their projects.

No appointment is needed. 

  • "Walk-In" Hours: Friday, 2:15-4:15 pm
  •  except for the dates where the FEC will be closed. Please check the weekly "Faculty Enrichment Center Newsletter" for the closing dates.

Please send an email to askstat@uc.edu for more questions.

Statistical Consulting by Appointment

Researchers requiring more time to discuss their statistical analysis needs are encouraged to schedule an appointment by submitting a request form. A faculty member from the Division of Statistics and Data Science affiliated with SCC will respond to the request within a short time.

Appointments will be set up during the following hours:

  • Tuesdays: 9 am-11 am, 2-4 pm
  • Thursdays: 9 am-11 am, 2-4 pm

We encourage you to drop by the center at the early stage of your research. Feel free to bring data, background information, prior analyses, or any other relevant materials at any stage.

If you are a graduate student, it is important that you obtain permission from your faculty advisor before reaching out to SCC for help.
