MSCI 669 - Linear and Generalized Linear Models in Ecology

Fall (3) Fabrizio. Prerequisite(s): MSCI 556 and ability to program in SAS or R

This course emphasizes the design and analysis of field data (e.g., retrospective studies, experimental manipulations in the field), rather than design and analysis of controlled laboratory experiments. Students will gain a working knowledge of linear and generalized linear models useful in the analysis of ecological data. Both theoretical development and application of statistical methods will be presented.
