Impact of my presence in leadership positions in UC-Davis

 

During my tenure as the Chair of the Graduate Program in Statistics in UC-Davis, statistics and statistics / probability research productivity in UC-Davis was evaluated and ranked as stated below:

 

Source: National Sciences and Engineering Council of Canada (NSERC).

Institutions ranked: 300 worldwide over the period of 1986-1990 (inclusive).

Basis of ranking: Research papers published in 16 peer-reviewed journals of high international repute.

 

UC-Davis ranked:

14-th among the 300 institutions worldwide (top 4.7%).

11-th within the USA institutions (top 3%).

3-rd within California (UC-Berkeley, Stanford University, UC-Davis).

 

Follow-up second evaluation

 

Source: "Worldwide research output in probability and statistics: an update” in: The Canadian Journal of Statistics, Vol. 30, No. 2, 2002, pages 392-442, by Christian Genest and Mireille Guay, covering the period of 1986-2000 (inclusive).

Institutions ranked: The same 300 as above.

Basis of ranking: The same (statistical) journals used in the previous ranking, plus another 9 probability journals.

 

The 300 institutions were ranked by the use of several criteria. On the basis of, perhaps, a most comprehensive and objective criterion, UC-Davis ranked 4-th among 202 institutions satisfying the criterion used (top 2%).

Also, I was instrumental in establishing a now flourishing Graduate Program in Biostatistics.
