The Statistics program at Yale is a blend of the mathematical theory of probability and statistical inference, the philosophy of inference under uncertainty, computational techniques, the practice of data analysis, and statistical analysis applied to economics, biology, medicine, engineering, and other areas. Interested students are invited to consider the Statistics concentration within the Applied Mathematics major. This program requires four courses in Statistics in addition to the introductory courses in probability and the theory of statistics required of all Applied Mathematics majors. Courses may be chosen from STAT 230b, 251b, 312a, 330b, 361b, 364b, and from graduate courses. Applied Mathematics majors with a concentration in Statistics have access to the research facilities of the department.
