Overview

The Applied Statistics and Data Sciences program introduces the underlying mathematics of applied statistics and data science while simultaneously offering exposure to computation and optimization issues inherent in large and disparate data sets. This major offers an honors track.

Applied Statistics uses a variety of computational techniques and methods to visualize and explore data to establish the structure and underlying trends of that data, investigate relationships between observed phenomena, facilitate data interpretation, and aid in decision-making.

Data Science expands on statistics to encompass the entire life cycle of data, from its specification, gathering, and cleaning through its management and analysis, to its use in making decisions and setting policy.

The program is offered by United States Military Academy at West Point.
