STATS 750 will focus on factorial and fractional factorial designs. It will take an applied approach but doses of theory will be applied at the lecturer's discretion.

Topics studied include: fractions of 2-level and 3-level designs, Plackett-Burman designs, the concepts of resolution and aberration, blocking fractional factorial designs, central composite design, and response surface methodology.
Familiarity with R is assumed, although examples of code are given in the notes.
