Κατέχει διδακτορικό και μεταπτυχιακό τίτλο σπουδών στη Στατιστική από το George Washington University των ΗΠΑ όπου σπούδασε με ολική υποτροφία του Πανεπιστημίου ενώ τελείωσε τις προπτυχιακές του σπουδές στο Τμήμα Μαθηματικών του Εθνικού και Καποδιστριακού Πανεπιστημίου Αθηνών.
Έχει υπηρετήσει ως πρόεδρος του Τμήματος και Κοσμήτορας της Σχολής Κοινωνικών και Πολιτικών Επιστημών ενώ από το Δεκέμβριο του 2017 είναι Πρύτανης του Πανεπιστημίου Πελοποννήσου, θέση στην οποία επανεξελέγη το Δεκέμβριο του 2022.
Professor Athanassios Katsis is a faculty member of the Department of Social and Education Policy at the University of the Peloponnese in Greece. His research covers the areas of Bayesian Statistics, optimal sample size calculations, statistical applications and education research. He has served as a faculty member at the University of the Aegean and has also taught at the University of Cyprus and the University of Toledo, Ohio. He has also been employed at the World Bank as a statistical consultant.
Professor Katsis holds a doctoral and a masters degree in Statistics from the George Washington University in USA, where he studied with a full scholarship. Ηe finished his undegraduate studies in Mathematics at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens in Greece.
Professor Katsis has served as Head of the Department and Dean of the School of Social and Political Studies at the University of the Peloponnese. In December 2017, he was elected Rector of the University, where he was reelected for a second term in December 2022.
Τα ερευνητικά μου ενδιαφέροντα είναι στην περιοχή της Στατιστικής κατά Bayes, στον υπολογισμό του βέλτιστου μεγέθους δείγματος και στις εφαρμογές στην Εκπαιδευτική Έρευνα και στις Τηλεπικοινωνίες.
My research interests lie in the area of Bayesian Statistics, optimal sample size calculations, as well as applications in the educational research and telecommunications.
