Professor Dwivedi memorial lectures
Concordia University has established an endowment for a lecture series entitled,
"The Professor T.D. Dwivedi Memorial Lectures”
These lectures are possible through a generous contribution from the Dwivedi Family. The Department of Mathematics & Statistics had organized a tenth lecture in this series on October 13, 2023, which was followed by a reception. The guest speaker of the tenth lecture, Dr. Nancy Reid, Professor in the Department of Statistical Sciences at the University of Toronto, gave a lecture titled: Theoretical Statistics in Practice.
