Department Statement

There are many job opportunities locally for Statisticians in many diverse areas of application, such as Biostatistics, Bioinformatics, Medical Statistics, Pharmaceutical, Biotech, Finance, Banking, Government, Education, Consulting, and many others. So, we encourage you to consider the fields of Statistics and Biostatistics as a program of study, whether graduate or undergraduate. Many of our undergraduate students are double-majors. Math, Economics, and Psychology majors, in particular, have found double-majoring with Statistics to be valuable in getting a job or pursuing higher degrees.
