Title: A Journey from Program Overview to Capstone Projects and Beyond

 

Abstract: In this seminar, we'll explore our statistics and data science programs, from foundational learning to capstone applications, and their role in advancing Ph.D. research. We will also discuss the diverse research areas within our statistics and data science programs.   Further, we will delve into the advantages that a background in data science brings to traditional statistics and mathematics education, particularly through the lens of a PhD student who has been navigating both fields simultaneously.
