Students who complete the Mathematics – Probability & Statistics Emphasis program leave University of Arizona very well prepared for a career as a statistician or actuary; however, the focus of this emphasis is to provide students with the mathematical depth and theoretical focus needed for graduate school in statistics. Students who may wish to earn a PhD in statistics should consider this emphasis rather than a Statistics major.
Courses include:
- Real Analysis of One Variable
- Theory of Statistics
- Linear Algebra
- Vector Calculus
- Theory of Probability
“Choosing the Master’s program for Physiological Sciences at the University of Arizona was one of the best decisions I could have made in my education. Our department is warm and collaborative, offering an array of research topics and techniques underneath a vast and integrative umbrella of physiology. Beyond my research experience, I was presented with teaching opportunities, which I feel honed my skill of scientific communication. Having the dynamic research/teaching/class schedule not only kept me active but helped me reinforce material in multiple contexts. Overall, this program was exactly what I wanted in my segway into the medical sciences… and with my teaching assistantship paying for my tuition, how could I say no?”
