Each fall the Department awards two prizes to graduate students.
- The Z.W. Birnbaum award, instituted in 1986 in honor of our distinguished emeritus professor, recognizes the graduate student who gives the outstanding general exam during the past year.
- The Dorothy M. Gilford teaching award, instituted in 1992 in honor of the first Statistics Master's student, recognizes outstanding performance by a graduate teaching assistant during the past year.
