The Department of Statistics provides degree programs for a Ph.D. in statistics or a master's in applied statistics. These programs allow customization based on students' backgrounds and career objectives. First-year students are advised to consult with faculty members to explore potential research areas. By the completion of the first year, students should form their advisory and examination committee. Additionally, a combined master's degree in computer science and statistics is available, along with a Statistics graduate certificate for non-majors. The M.S. in applied statistics mandates 32 semester credits with a minimum 3.0 GPA, culminating in an oral defense of a thesis or research paper.
