Statistics is the science of designing studies or experiments, collecting data, and modeling/analyzing data for the purpose of decision making and scientific discovery. The ability to obtain, analyze and synthesize large amounts of data is key to most research in both the natural sciences and the social sciences. The Statistics minor is designed to encourage students studying in another discipline to gain a deeper understanding of statistics. The program will also prepare students for graduate school and careers in industrial statistics, actuarial science, biostatistics, and research.
- Students are required to take 4 courses
- At least half of the courses fulfilling a minor must be distinct from the student鈥檚 major.
