As a result, statistics is one of the fastest growing majors on college campuses. We use the expression, few are called and less are chosen. Statisticianhas become theNo. 2 in Best Business Job according toU.S. News & World Report Statistics requires excellent math skills, a sense of data structure and manipulation, and good problem solving skills. The combination of these areas enables statisticians to assist in research and discovery in almost every discipline. To researchers, statistics is a set of tools to help estimate effects and test hypotheses. To statisticians, the field is an exciting combination of theory, methods, and discovery used to guide research and bring products to market faster.

The Statistics major teaches statistical theory and the foundations of inference as well as the collection, management, analysis, and interpretation of data. Statistical methodology is used in virtually every professional field as a way to conduct research and make important decisions. These include the pure sciences, such as biology, chemistry, and physics, as well as engineering, business, medicine, and the social sciences such as economics, political science, psychology, and sociology. Our program is a traditional statistics program that emphasizes mathematical competency, foundations in statistical theory, computational and programming skills, and depth in the analysis and management of data. The Statistics major prepares students for careers in statistical and data analysis, as well as graduate work in statistics, data science, or biostatistics.
