The Section "Education and Research" of the SSS (SSS-ER) was founded in 2003. It unifies statisticians active in education and reserach. The main goals include the organization of courses and conferences in mathematical and applied statistics, the assistance for the organization of the Swiss Statistical Days, as well as the coordination and support of education programs in mathematical and applied statistics.
