In August 2020, Professor Ke Deng of our center was elected as the Associate Editor of the internationally renowned statistics magazine Statistica Sinica for a term of three years. Professor Ke Deng is the executive director and long-term associate professor at the Center of the Statistical Science of Tsinghua University.
Statistica Sinica (founded in 1991), is the journal of the International Chinese Statistical Association. Over the past 30 years, it has published a large number of important research results in the international statistics field, and is widely regarded as a comprehensive statistical theory journal with extensive international influence.

Recently, Jie Li, a 2017 third-year phd student in our center, won the 2020 Hannan Graduate Student Travel Award from the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS).
The International Association for Mathematical Statistics (IMS), headquartered in the United States, is one of the three authoritative statistical academic organizations in the world. It aims to develop and promote the theory and application of statistics and probability, and publish high-quality academic journals, such as Annals of Statistics and Annals of Probability. The honorary awards issued by IMS, such as IMS Fellow and various Travel Awards, are highly recognized by the international statistical community. The Hannan Graduate Student Travel Award, named after the late IMS Fellow and Emeritus Professor of Statistics and Probability at Michigan State University James Hannan, is awarded annually to graduate students and young scholars within two years of Ph.D. graduation all over the world，and rewards them for presenting outstanding papers at international statistical conferences sponsored or funded by IMS. Due to the epidemic this year, each winner can participate in any IMS international conference and receive a funding of US$500 before December 2022. This year, except for Li Jie, the other 23 winners are from universities in the United States, Britain, Canada, Australia and South Korea.
Jie Li’s award-winning paper “Statistical Inference for the Stationary Mean of Functional Time Series” proposes to use B-spline to estimate the mean function of functional time series, prove it “oracle efficient”, and then construct the simultaneous confidence bands of the mean function. This method was applied to ElectroEncephalogram data and some meaningful findings were obtained.(Translated by Jie Li)

Recently, the first Times Higher Education Chinese Subject Rating was released, the Statistics department in Tsinghua University was rated “A+” level. Among the national statistics departments, a total of 4 colleges and universities have been rated “A+”. In addition to Tsinghua University, Peking University, Beijing Normal University, and the University of Science and Technology of China have also been rated “A+”.
According to the official introduction of the “Times World University Rankings”, this rating is classified according to the disciplines of the Ministry of Education of China, covering 89 sub-disciplines. 80 mainland Chinese universities are on the list, covering a total of 1355 universities worldwide. Universities in mainland China perform well, with a score of “B+”, while universities in other parts of the world are rated “B”.
The best performers in mainland China are Tsinghua University, Peking University, University of Science and Technology of China, Fudan University and Shanghai Jiaotong University, all of which have average grades above “A”.
In addition, 45 of Tsinghua University’s 48 participating disciplines were rated “A+”, with an average rating close to “A+”, maintaining a leading position in China. (Translated by Jie Li)
