Our college continues to use donated endowment funds to support undergraduate research and keep our graduate programs competitive. With the help of your donations, we will continue to progress toward our goal of $20 million. Zachary Knowlton, an undergraduate student in the Department of Statistics, is one student who has benefited from donations to the endowment. The dona10m 10m tions helped fund his undergraduate research award. Knowlton works with Dr. Gil Fellingham and other students to find new ways to analyze sports data through 8m 8m performing analytics on the BYU football team. “My personal career goal is to be a sports analyst and help teams succeed with the aid of 6m 6m statistics,” Knowlton said. “I know that it is a difficult field to enter, but the experience I am gaining as well as my willingness to work hard and 4m think outside the box will . . . 4m lead to further success down the road.” Knowlton’s research experience will be a great advantage to him when he applies to the 22m m statistics masters program at BYU. There are many other students like Knowlton who would also qualify and benefit from an undergraduate research award. If you would like to contribute or know somebody who would, please visit http://cpms.byu.edu/donate/, or contact Brent Hall by phone at 801.422.4501, or by email at brenth@byu.edu.
