Kenneth N. Berk Graduate Summer Research Fellowship and/or Lecture Series in Statistics
The Kenneth N. Berk Graduate Summer Research Fellowship and/or Lecture Series in Statistics endowment was established in 2003 with the combined cash and deferred gifts of David E. and Stephanie E. Booth and a cash contribution of Kenneth N. Berk. The purpose of the fund is to provide a graduate student, majoring in statistics, a summer research fellowship to supplement a graduate assistantship. The student must have successfully completed the first two semesters of his/her graduate work in the Applied Statistics sequence in the Mathematics Masters program and be working with a faculty advisor on specific research in statistics. The fund may also cover expenses associated with bringing in an outstanding speaker in the statistical sciences.
