Mathematics/Applied Statistics and Data Science (Combined BS/MS)

Download as PDF

The combined program allows highly qualified students to earn both a BS in Mathematics and an MS in Applied Statistics and Data Science in less time than would be required to earn the two degrees separately. To be eligible for the program, an undergraduate Mathematics major must have at least junior status, a grade of at least A- in either STAT 4310 or STAT 7404, an overall GPA of at least 3.3, and a Mathematics major GPA of at least 3.5. Students admitted to the combined program will take up to four Applied Statistics and Data Science graduate courses as an undergraduate, and these courses can count towards both the BS in Mathematics and the MS in Applied Statistics and Data Science. Students who are interested in the program should apply as early as possible and should consult with the Director of the Applied Statistics and Data Science Graduate Program about their undergraduate course choices. Usually, STAT 7500 (or STAT 7404 for students who had not previously completed STAT 4310), STAT 8400, STAT 8401, and STAT 8406 are taken during the junior and senior years as an undergraduate student.
