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 402 and 413.
  3. At least one of: Statistics 414, 470, or 480.
  4. At least one 400+ level Mathematics course.
  5. At least one course in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. This course will be CS 283 or Statistics 406 or an advisor approved EECS course.
  6. Elective courses in Statistics, Mathematics, or EECS. These are advisor approved electives. The list of approved courses include Statistics 406, 430, 466, 470, 480, any 500+ level Statistics courses, and 300+ level advisor-approved EECS course and the Mathematics course in #4 above. (Math 216 does not qualify). 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 the Department's concentration advisor. Students in the Honors program must complete the regular concentration program above with at least a 3.5 GPA and must elect at least three of the following courses: Statistics 500, 501, 510, 511, and Mathematics 451 and 513. In addition, Honors concentrators must elect the Senior Honors Seminar or complete some project under the direction of a member of the faculty. This additional requirement should be arranged and discussed with the concentration 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.
