TAO WANG

Welcome to my website!

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Economics, and cross-listed in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Victoria (UVic). I like conceiving and developing novel research questions primarily rooted in econometrics, statistics, and machine learning. My current research concentrates on building and developing a broad variety of modal and mode-based regression models and investigating their statistical inference with possible applications.

My work has been supported by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) of Canada, the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) of Canada, along with other funding sources.

📯 PhD Student Opportunity:
I am currently looking to recruit a motivated PhD student with interests in econometrics/statistics and machine learning. If you are interested, please feel free to contact me by email and include your CV and academic transcript.
