Statistics is a broad mathematical discipline which studies ways to collect, summarize, and draw conclusions from data. It is applicable to a wide variety of academic disciplines from physical and social sciences to the humanities as well as to business, government, and industry. Once data is collected, either through a formal sampling procedure or by recording responses to treatments in an experimental setting (experimental design), or by repeatedly observing a process over time (time series), graphical and numerical summaries may be obtained using descriptive statistics.
The major in Statistics was founded in 1990 and has made great developments. Balanced programs for students have been established so that they learn statistical theory as well as practice analyzing data with various statistical computer packages. In order to support independent study, the Department provides two rooms exclusively for a Statistics Library and Computing Lab. The Statistics Library is filled with numerous statistics and computer science books and relevant outstanding papers. The Computing Lab has computers with programs such as SAS, SPSS, S-PLUS, Minitab, MATLAB, and R. The Department has active research programs in statistical genetics, bio-informatics, Bayesian statistics, statistical computing, pattern recognition, and other topics.
Students may seek employment in a number of companies, including major conglomerates, statistical package development firms, life insurance companies, banks, research firms, and the civil service.
