Accelerated B.S./M.S. Degrees
The combined Bachelors of Mathematics with a concentration in Statistics and Masters of Statistics and Data Science degree allows dedicated statistics students to complete two degrees in a compressed time frame (typically, five years instead of six), while still maintaining the rigor and content of both degrees. Students will receive a BS in Mathematics with a concentration in Statistics, and an MS in Statistics and Data Science.
Minimum Requirements for Accelerated Math B.S./Statistics and Data Science M.S. Degrees: 138 credits
