Applied Statistics Experience/Advanced Elective
Capstone-like course (CAS 4983), Internship, Mentored Research Experience, or Advanced Elective with a major applied statistical component and a written project report.
Most of the advanced electives require instructor permission and many disciplinary-specific prerequisites that should be met or specifically discussed with the instructor prior to enrollment.
To fulfill this requirement, the course must include a data-related project with a written report. Students will submit a DSP Project Experience Course Approval Form for approval before the end of the free add/drop period. Alternatively, an additional course can be taken from among listed courses in the previous categories AND that includes a substantial project that includes data analysis, visualization, and interpretation and a discussion of any ethical considerations with respect to the topic and data. In this case, students will submit a DSP Project Experience Course Approval Form to describe the project in the course.
