May be elected as a departmental concentration program

Prerequisites to Concentration. Mathematics 215 and 217; Computer Science 183.

Concentration Program. Upon completion of the above prerequisite courses, the concentration program consists of at least 30 credits, additionally, in statistics, mathematics and electrical engineering and computer science courses. These 30 credits must include the following:

  1. Statistics 425 and 426.
  2. Statistics 350 and 413.
  3. Statistics 406
  4. At least one of: Statistics 414, 470, or 480.
  5. At least one 400+ level Mathematics course (exceptions: Math 417, 420).
  6. Elective courses in Statistics, Mathematics, or EECS. These are advisor approved electives. The list of approved courses include Statistics 408, 430, 466, 470, 480, any 500+ level Statistics courses, and 300+ level advisor-approved EECS course and the Mathematics course in #5 above. Students interested in the application of statistics to various disciplines such as economics, biological sciences, and psychology are also encouraged to take courses in these areas.

Honors Concentration. Any student who has maintained an overall grade point average of at least 3.2 through the sophomore year may apply for admission to the Honors concentration program. Such application is made through a Statistics Department undergraduate academic advisor. Students in the Honors program must complete the regular concentration program above with the following modifications: the advanced Math course must be Math 451 and an overall GPA or at least 3.5. In addition, Honors concentrators must elect the Senior Honors Seminar (Statistics 499) and complete a project under the direction of a member of the faculty. This additional requirement should be arranged and discussed with a Statistics Department undergraduate academic advisor.

Advising. Normally, most statistics courses are elected after an introductory mathematics sequence has been completed or after consulting a department staff member. Advising appointments are made at 4062 Frieze Building.
