The department offers a statistics major and a joint statistics/mathematics major in cooperation with the mathematics department. The joint statistics/mathematics major provides a stronger preparation for graduate study in statistics. Students who are interested most in applying statistics in industry, government, or in applied areas of graduate study should take the statistics major. The department encourages interdisciplinary study, and students should consult with departmental advisers to plan their program.
