Emily Griffith
Bio
I’m a Professor of the Practice and Associate Head in the Department of Statistics at North Carolina State University. I’m also the Director of Consulting at our Data Science Academy. My research interests include developing best practices for teaching statistical consulting and collaboration and for organizing these efforts in higher education.
I am active in the North Carolina Chapter of the American Statistical Association (ASA) and served as its President in 2019. I am also active in the broader ASA: I am on the Pathways to Promotion committee in the Section on Statistical Consulting and am the District 5 Vice Chair to the Council of Chapters Governing Board.
After earning my Ph.D. in statistics from NC State University in 2008, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center in Maryland. In 2009 I began working for the Criminal Justice Information Services Division in West Virginia, and in 2013 I returned to NC State as a professional track assistant professor. I was promoted to the associate level in 2018 and to Professor of the Practice in 2024.
