The Department of Statistics at Texas A&M University provides an Applied Statistics Certificate program. This certification equips graduate students from non-statistics fields and working professionals with fundamental statistical skills. Participants gain expertise in experimental design, data collection techniques, and applying proper analytical methods for data summarization, hypothesis testing, and predictive modeling. The program offers multiple specialization tracks such as biostatistics, data science, and statistical computing. Local students from other disciplines can enroll in the certificate program alongside their current degree studies without extra application requirements. The program also serves professionals seeking statistical training without pursuing a full degree in statistics or other academic fields.
You are an international graduate applicant if you:
are not a citizen or permanent resident of the United States (or applicant for permanent residency) AND
you have not graduated from a Texas high school after three years in residence in Texas AND
hold a bachelor’s or professional degree (or equivalent)
