Statistics is the science of collection, organization, analysis, and explanation of data.
The field offers many opportunities for people who enjoy interpreting the world in quantitative ways using numbers, surveys, and computers. In this field, methods are developed and used to explain quantitative patterns observed in the social, physical, and natural sciences and in business and industry. These are exciting times for our discipline since probability and statistics are playing an increasingly crucial role in the advancement of science and technology.
