BA/BS in Statistics

The Bachelor of Science in Statistics at Loyola University Chicago trains students in a wide range of statistical methods and the mathematics that supports them. Coursework pairs calculus and linear algebra with applied regression, experimental design and a capstone. Students work with real data using software such as R and SAS, and fulfill a science requirement as part of the major. The degree carries waivers for both the quantitative and scientific areas of the university core. Graduates are prepared for roles in medical research, technology, pharmaceuticals, insurance, finance, government and public health, or for further study in a master's program in applied statistics.
