News & Announcements
Andrew Ilyas will join our community of Fellows at the start of the fall quarter. Andrew has completed a lengthy career at MIT — undergraduate, graduate, and PhD — and hopes to teach on topics of deep learning, general machine learning, algorithms, causal inference, optimization, and more.
A new appointment will join our department on July 1 (jointly supported by Stanford Data Science). Brian comes to us from a postdoctoral stint with the Columbia University Department of Statistics as well as a visiting researcher post with the University of Washington's Institute for Protein Design in Seattle.
In this feature article from the School of Humanities and Sciences website, our incoming data science program director describes his ambition to help students see how statistics, data science, and probability apply to their everyday lives by infusing introductory courses in these subjects with relatable examples, and even a lot of fun.

Our IA Program develops practical relationships between the department and the industrial community by creating opportunities for scientists, engineers, and developers from high-profile businesses to meet with our graduate students and share research topics in an informal setting. The annual conference for members, faculty, and final-year PhD candidates is a highlight event in our academic year.
The entire collection of Tech Reports issued by the Statistics Department — since 1949 — is available in PDF format. Browse the Archive in date order or search by Author, Year, Series, or Title keyword: advance your research or just find something interesting every time!
