The Causality in Statistics Education Award is aimed at encouraging the teaching of basic causal inference in introductory statistics courses. Originally donated by Judea Pearl and now sponsored by Microsoft Research and Google, the prize is motivated by the growing importance of introducing core elements of causal inference into undergraduate and lower-division graduate classes in statistics. For more information, please see http://www.amstat.org/education/causalityprize/.
Nominations and questions should be sent to the ASA office at educinfo@amstat.org. The nomination deadline is March 1, 2017.
