The Department of Statistics has a long tradition in research on multivariate and factor analysis. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) is a form of multivariate analysis that was developed by K. G. Jöreskog (professor emeritus in the department) in the early 1970s. The research has since then been carried out under his surveillance. The Department of Statistics now has one senior researcher in this research area.

Furthermore consideration will be given to the capacity to interact with others both within academia and in the wider community. Particular importance will be given to research within Structural Equation Modelling.
