Recruitment of PhD students

I am interested in taking PhD students to work in the area of statistics, econometrics, and optimization. General requirements are the following:

1. Undergraduate degree in math/stat with GPA >=85/100 from a 985 university (or equivalent). Master degree is not necessary but a master degree from a good university is a plus.

2. English requirement: TOEFL>=79 or IELTS>=6.5, unless your first degree was obtained from an institution where the language of teaching is English
