Background and activities
Ingelin Steinsland (1974) is professor at the Department of Mathematical Sciences. She is a member of the the Statistics group. Professor Steinsland has a MSc in Industrial Mathematics and a PhD in Statistics from NTNU. She is the Vice Dean of research at the Faculty of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering.
Research
Aim of research: Ingelin Steinsland aims to introduce new statistical methods and knowledge to applied scientists, and develop statistical methods and knowledge based on problems from applied scientists. She has a special focus on models and methods for large datasets. Steinsland has two key applications; forecasting for physical systems, especially hydrology and quantitative genetics.
