Overview
The study of statistics encompasses study design and the collection, assessment and curation of data; the building of formal statistical models to capture an abstraction of reality; and the rules of probability upon which those models rest.
In the Statistics program at The Ohio State University, students will explore each of these areas in their course work. They will also develop statistical, computational and numerical skills that are applicable in various fields.
Possible careers
Graduates of the statistics major will be well-suited for jobs requiring statistical analyses of data and the ability to provide theoretically grounded insights. Statisticians can work in a variety of fields, including pharmacy, finance, consumer science, medicine, environmental science, agriculture, business, education, engineering and the social sciences.
Graduates will also be prepared for further study at the graduate level, which can lead to career opportunities in academia, government and other industries.
