专业概况

在这里学什么？

This major helps prepare students with interests in mathematics, computation, and the quantitative aspects of science for careers in industry and government as statistical analysts, or for further graduate training in statistics. The major includes five options:

An Actuarial Statistics Option for students interested in working as actuaries in the insurance or business fields; An Applied Statistics Option for students interested in a cross-disciplinary program, such as econometrics, or psychometrics; A Biostatistics Option for students interested in pursuing careers with pharmaceutical companies, research hospitals or other fields in which biological data is analyzed; A Graduate Study Option for students planning to go to graduate school in a statistics-related field; and A Statistics and Computing Option for students wishing to combine statistical expertise with programming skills.

Statistics is the field of study of that uses mathematics, computing, and analysis, to organize and understand data. Statisticians use critical and abstract thinking through the application of mathematical principles to statistical problems, and combine modeling with computational skills to analyze data.

CAREER PATHS

Statistics can be applied in a broad range of fields, including business, agriculture, finance, public policy, and many more. As data in all forms become more easily stored and accessed, so does the demand and opportunity for statisticians to help others discern what can (or cannot) be learned from the information available. In fact, statisticians are also frequently sought after for their disciplined approach to problem solving and critical thinking, even when no formal data analysis is needed.

CAREERS

Statisticians in the pharmaceutical industry work with doctors and research scientists to design and execute experiments and clinical trials. - Statisticians at technology and manufacturing companies work to advance product development from ensuring reliability and quality of hardware components to software development. - Statisticians collaborate with epidemiologists and public health agencies like the NIH and CDC to study infectious disease dynamics among threatened populations. - Statisticians at government agencies like the U.S. Department of Education, Census Bureau, and Department of Labor help inform public policy and assess impact of legislative changes.
