Statistical design of experiments 

 

Almost any experiment implies investigation of how various factors and experimental conditions influence outcomes of the experiment. This can be quite challenging especially if there are more than just 1-2 factors and when the factors influence each others effects. This course will show how to plan such experiments properly, carry out the experimental runs, and analyse the results, so at the end you get a reliable and reproducible knowledge about combination of the most important factors and their values, which give the best outcome or the desirable effect. You will learn necessary theoretical background and implement main methods in R by creating your own DoE toolbox. You will also have a chance to try these methods on several small real projects we will be working on during the course.

Important information concerning PhD courses:

We have over some time experienced problems with no-show for both project and general courses. It has now reached a point where we are forced to take action. Therefore, the Doctoral School has decided to introduce a no-show fee of DKK 3.000 for each course where the student does not show up. Cancellations are accepted no later than 2 weeks before start of the course. Registered illness is of course an acceptable reason for not showing up on those days. Furthermore, all courses open for registration approximately four months before start. This can hopefully also provide new students a chance to register for courses during the year. We look forward to your registrations.
