CSIS - Statistics Course List

The Center for Statistical and Information Science is the place to find all information on statistical and data analysis resources at Temple University.  This document is a listing of courses offered across Temple University that cover some aspect of statistics, experimental design, data collection, data analysis or database programming. 

You will find the Statistical and Data Analysis offerings at Temple University span coverage of the basics to specialized experts in their field. Don’t miss out on some of the opportunities offered here at Temple in the form of courses.

Although we have made every attempt to be complete, this list is not perfect.  If you know of a course which should be on this list please let us know.  These courses have been listed without verification or inspection of the syllabi.  We make no claims about prerequisites, appropriateness, quality or curricula and it is up to the individual to research a course on their own prior to any enrollment or other action.

This list is updated according to the new Temple course numbering system. The old numbers are still included in the parentheses following the new numbers. For more information about the course renumbering project, please visit the Course Renumbering Web site, or use its searchable database to find courses with old or new numbers.

Featured Courses

PSYCH 8041(0525): Structural Equation Modeling

This course was offered Spring 2007 by the Department of Psychology and was taught by the father of Structural Equation Modeling himself, Temple’s own Dr. James Arbuckle.  Dr. Arbuckle created the original version of AMOS software, which is currently available through SPSS.  If you want to know about Structural Equation Modeling or Latent Variable Modeling or Path Analysis, then there is no better course to take than this one.  For more information, please go to: http://jamesarbuckle.com/main/oldsyllabi/announce.htm. or contact: james.arbuckle@temple.edu or visit: www.jamesarbuckle.com.

PH 3101(0225) & 5101(0510): Epidemiology

These courses are offered each semester at the undergraduate and graduate levels by the Department of Public Health.  The courses are to be taught by Dr. Sheryl Ruzek and Dr. Bob Patterson.  For the first time ever Temple University now offers a Master's Degree in Epidemiology. Congratulations and thanks to the Department of Public Health and the College of Health Professionals for this exciting new program, which is yet another way that Temple University is moving swiftly toward the future of Health Care sciences. For more information about either of these courses or the new program, contact the Epidemiology program director Dr. Deborah Nelson at: dnelson@temple.edu.

STAT 8004(0504): Statistical Methods II

This course is offered by our very own Department of Statistics each Spring and was taught by Dr. Richard Heiberger this 2007.  Dr. Heiberger is a world authority on Data Display and programming in S-Plus, R, and SAS. His new book on the topic (Heiberger and Holland) has recently been published (Springer) and is the course text.  Statistical Methods II is the second part of a year-long, hands-on course for statistics and business majors covering popular topics such as Multiple Regression, Logistic Regression, Time Series, Non-parametric Analysis, Factor Analysis, Descriminant Analysis, Jacknife, and the Bootstrap Method.  Students will be programming in S- Plus, R, or SAS to complete assignments.  For more information on the book visit: http://astro.temple.edu/%7Ebholland/books.html.  For more information about the course visit: http://www.sbm.temple.edu/faculty/rheiberger/.

STAT 9190(0702): New Topics in Multivariate Analysis II

This course was offered by our very own Department of Statistics and was taught by Dr. Alan Izenman Spring 2007.  Dr. Izenman is Director of the Center for Statistical and Information Science and is an expert in multivariate analysis and the father of Reduced Rank Regression.  This second course in a yearlong program covers topics ranging from Factor Analysis, Discriminant Analysis, Canonical Variate Analysis, Random Forests, Text Database Analysis, Data Mining, Neural Networks and Machine Learning and features a final project utilizing one of the topics covered in the course.  If you want to know about the new innovations in statistics, don’t miss this one.  For more information, contact Dr. Izenman at: alan.izenman@temple.edu.
