Our staff members have a broad range of interests and have a vast amount of statistical consulting experience.

The UWA Centre for Applied Statistics provides:

• efficient analyses of data using modern methods and software
• advice to help you avoid costly mistakes in the set up of your project
• authoritative, critical assessment of data, including expert witness testimony in courts of law
• access to modern statistical and mathematical software
• instruction so you may intelligently use statistical tools
• independent reviews and feedback on reports and research articles.

Consulting

The Centre for Applied Statistics' consulting fees are based on an hourly rate. The rate varies depending on whether you are a UWA student/staff or external client.

Standard $290 + $29 GST

UWA (Internal transfers only) $180 + $18 GST

Collaboration policy

In instances where the work done by the consultant has made a substantial contribution to an article for publication, the consultant would usually expect co-authorship. In these cases, the work involved in analysing the data and preparing a report on the results will be charged at the usual rates, but assistance with writing and revising the manuscript for publication will be free from charges. In cases where the consultant is not to be a co-author, all services, including assistance with writing manuscripts, will be charged at the usual rates and acknowledgement of the consultant's contribution to the article is at the discretion of the author (and with permission of the consultant). Ideally, authorship issues should be made clear at the initial consultation.
