Students with concentration in Applied Statistics will study modern statistical methods related to the acquisition, organization, analysis, and interpretation of data. Courses are included that emphasize theory and application of probability, statistics, and mathematical modeling. This program also provides excellent preparation for the student interested in starting a career in the actuarial profession. The curriculum for applied mathematics includes core mathematics courses common to both concentrations. These courses comprise about one quarter of the total credits in the program.
Considerable emphasis is placed on additional core courses in science, management and humanities.
At Kettering University, the student majoring in applied mathematics interacts regularly with engineering departments through core and other required courses appropriate to the concentrations in applied and computational mathematics and applied statistics. A substantial number of electives provides flexibility for greater breadth or depth of study in mathematics or its applications. Kettering University is currently in the final stages of a major curriculum reform process. If there are any differences between the information on this page and the Catalog, the Catalog takes precedence. Issues 4 SSCI-201 Intro.
