Stat111: Introduction to Statistical Inference

Undergraduate, Harvard Statistics Department, 1900

I taught this course during the Spring 2022 term. I prepared handwritten materials to lead a discussion section, held joint office hours with Ginnie Ma and Rachel Li, and graded problem sets and exams. I co-taught this course with Julian Wagner-Carena in the Spring of 2023.

Description

Stat111 is the introductory course to statistical inference and second foundational course in the Harvard Statistics Department. This course primarily focuses on the frequentist approach to statistics, with a significant portion of the course dedicated to maximum likelihood methods. The last third of the course discusses Bayesian approaches, design-based approaches, and casaul inference. The course was taught by Prof. Neil Shephard in Spring of 2022 and by Prof. Joe Blitzstein in Spring of 2023.
