from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Joachim Georg Hartung (born  February 13, 1948 in Günthersleben ; † February 28, 2014 in Königswinter ) was a German mathematician . From 1979 to 2013 he was Professor of Statistics with applications in the field of engineering at the Technical University of Dortmund and was the author of several standard works on applied statistics.

Life

Joachim Hartung was 1948 in Günthersleben and studied 1966-1971 mathematics at the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-University of Bonn , where he in 1972 on Walter Vogel received his doctorate ( separation minimization vector in non-linear programs and ). From 1971 to 1975 he worked as a research assistant at the Institute for Probability Theory and Mathematical Statistics and from 1975 to 1979 as Professor of Applied Statistics at the Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Bonn. On April 1, 1979, he was appointed Professor of Mathematical Statistics at the University of Münster . Already on September 1 of that year, however, he accepted a call to a professor of statistics with applications in the field of engineering sciences at the Department of Statistics of the Technical University of Dortmund , which he held until his retirement held in August, 2013.

From 1993 to 2003 he was the spokesman for the Graduate School “Applied Statistics” in Dortmund , and from 2004 to 2007 he held the same position in the Graduate School “Statistical Modeling”. He was also active as an expert, consultant and advisory board in the field of biometrics and medical statistics for various authorities , courts as well as academic and industrial institutions in Germany and abroad. In 2006 he received the Thomas L. Saaty Prize for Applied Advances in the Mathematical and Management Sciences from the American Journal of Mathematical and Management Sciences . He died in Königswinter in 2014 .
