Brian Dennis and I are putting together a talk about "statistical literacy for ecologists" to present at the Ecological Society of America's annual meeting in 3 weeks, and I'm looking for some additional data on quantitative skills requirements in graduate degree programs in ecology (sensu lato). We're hoping that many ecolog-l readers will answer the following four questions that we can use in a (non-random) dataset.
Your university: Your degree program (MSc or PhD) and field: Math/stats requirements for degree program (course titles, not numbers): Math/stats courses you have actually taken (course titles, not numbers): Anonymous results will be presented at 3:30 pm in the ESA Symposium #1 "Why Is Ecology Hard To Learn? K-16 Through Graduate Students". The title of the talk is: "What statistics do literate ecologists need to learn, and is there a best way to learn them?". Thanks very much for your participation, Aaron Ellison
