BS Statistics

Students in the Statistics B.S. programs gain the knowledge and technical skills necessary to use complex data in many different applications. Statistics is the scientific application of mathematical principles to the collection, analysis, interpretation and presentation of statistical data objectively in the presence of uncertainty. Statistical methods allow us to utilize survey and experimental data to draw valid conclusions about the overall population of interest. Statisticians contribute to scientific inquiry by applying their mathematical knowledge to the design of surveys and experiments, collection, processing and analysis of data, and interpretation of the results.
