Mathematics (BA) with emphasis in Statistics

The world is full of data, and businesses, organizations, and individuals look to make decisions and predictions based on that data. The connection between the data and the decision lies in statistics. Students seeking the Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics with an emphasis in Statistics study the mathematics of chance (probability) and the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data (statistics). An emphasis in Statistics opens the door to data-driven job opportunities in business, government, and industry, and provides a solid preparation for further studies in statistics or data science.
