This graduate level course covers the essentials for statistical analysis of categorical data. The focus will be on models (from simple Binomial models to generalized linear models for categorical or ordinal variables), methods, and applications.

Brief introductions to sampling will be given as a second topic, but the students should not expect the course to be a complete introduction to sampling.

If you wish to learn how to use SAS, you may consult "The Little SAS Book, A Primer, Third Edition" by Delwiche and Slaughter. The online SAS manu is another place for quick help.

If you have any questions about the course, please contact the instructor.
