Statistics Consulting Service

Hosted by the Department of Mathematics & Statistics, the Statistical Consulting Service offers advice on applied statistics, computing methodologies and data analytics for ongoing research, study design, preparation of grant proposals, etc. for the McGill research community.

About The Support

Our support of your statistical and data science needs begins with an initial consultation. For support solutions that require more than this, as is frequently the case, we aim to scope most projects to require no more than 10-20 hours of our team's work. For projects of larger or indefinite scope, and by mutual agreement, we may be able to engage as collaborators, which may involve fees (unlike our limited-scope service). Our staff, working under faculty supervision, includes advanced undergraduate students and graduate students from the Department of Mathematics and Statistics and related departments. Please be advised that in general we are unlikely to be able to provide last minute advice.

Who Can Use This Support

McGill University faculty, research staff, graduate students, and undergraduates engaged in faculty-led research, including McGill-affiliated research centers and hospitals.

We do not offer: 
> Data entry or editing 
> Help with homework, class assignments, or class presentations 
> Tutoring or teaching
