Biography: Dr. Perrett received his Ph.D. in statistics from Kansas State University in 2004. He worked for four years as an assistant professor in the department of Applied Statistics and Research Methods (ASRM) at the University of Northern Colorado. While there, he researched unreplicated and minimally replicated experiments. He then accepted a position in the Department of Statistics at Texas A&M University to direct the AP Statistics and statistics education efforts. His current research is in statistics education. Dr. Perrett is an avid SAS programmer and is the author of A SAS/IML Companion for Linear Models, published by Springer.
