Abstract:

Training future statisticians is integral to statistics making an impact, but finding ways to fund students can be a challenge. In this session, funding agency representatives and PI’s of existing training grants for both undergraduate and graduate students will describe the landscape of funding opportunities for students, discuss challenges of securing and maintaining funding, and share tips for success applications.
