Name: Bob Heiny
Professor of Mathematics and Applied Statistics

Education:
Ph.D., Mathematical Statistics, Colorado State University (1968)
M.S., Mathematical Statistics, Colorado State University (1966)

 Classes:
Introduction to Probability, Statistics, Sampling Theory, Linear Regression, Elementary Statistics, Calculus, and a broad range of graduate statistics courses.

 Teaching Philosophy
My approach to classes is a combination of lecture, interaction, examples and computer laboratories. It is imperative that students work homework problems on a daily basis and ask questions in class. New technology is introduced to supplement basic theoretical concepts.

The classroom atmosphere is informal, open and encourages an exchange of ideas. I also encourage students to come in for help when they need it.

Experience
1968-present UNC - Mathematical Statistics.
1964-68 - Graduate Teaching Assistant, CSU.

 Research and Publications:
My research interests are in the areas of estimation theory and developing statistical models to determine the possible presence of discrimination in higher education salary, tenure and promotion decisions.

I have published approximately 15 articles in the fields of statistics, mathematics and education pedagogy

 Interests:
Sports: I am the NCAA Faculty Athletic Representative for UNC. I regularly attend most UNC sporting events, attend NCAA and North Central Conference meetings, and check on academic progress of all student athletes at UNC.

I am also an avid golfer. I spend most summers playing golf in tournaments around the state of Colorado.
