University Centers and Research Units center for statistical research and consulting Joon Jin Song, director SCEN 309B 479-575-6319 csrc@uark.edu The Center for Statistical Research and Consulting will be a service and research unit of UA, administratively housed in Department of Mathematical Sciences, providing faculty and graduate students in the university with an environment for collaboration in research and instruction emphasizing statistical / quantitative approaches. It offers statistical consulting and statistical software support to faculty, staff, graduate and undergraduate students conducting research at UA. The center will extend this statistical support to the State of Arkansas, directly providing some consulting services but primarily acting as a conduit for industry, government, and non-profit organizations to engage campus faculty and graduate students in consulting opportunities. The community support activities from the center will stimulate and enhance campus research and instructional efforts as well as provide important services to organizations throughout the region. The mission of the Center for Statistical Research and Consulting is to participate in research to provide high quality statistical input to high quality research projects, train statisticians to interact effectively with investigators from other disciplines, and encourage collaborative research between statisticians and investigators from other disciplines. The center is a fee-for-service unit. The initial consulting meeting with a client is provided at no cost. All subsequent and follow-up visits will require financial support.

ENGINEERING EXPERIMENT STATION Research is a major function of each of the faculties within the seven departments in the College of Engineering. Research coordination is achieved through the Engineering Experiment Station, which was established for that purpose by an act of the Arkansas Legislature in 1920. The overall goal of research in the College of Engineering is to provide engineering solutions to important problems that face our society. We utilize our faculty, staff, students, and facilities to enhance the well-being of both public and private sectors. Student involvement in research is especially important in that it helps link them to the needs of their future employers. All departments – biological and agricultural, chemical, civil, computer engineering, electrical, industrial, and mechanical engineering – conduct research over a broad spectrum of subjects that includes areas such as biological and chemical processes; electronics manufacturing; environmental and ecosystems analysis; material and manufacturing; software and telecommunications; and transportation, logistics, and infrastructure. Funding for research within the college comes primarily through grants received from government and industry sources. 2012-13 Graduate Catalog, University of Arkansas, Fayetteville ENGINEERING RESEARCH CENTER http://www.uark.edu/ua/artp/facilities/enrc.html Mike Brosius, facility manager 700 Research Center Blvd. 479-575-7318 brosius@uark.edu The Engineering Research Center provides the facilities and support services for a wide variety of research activities of the College of Engineering.
