Department of Statistics

The UNL Department of Statistics offers graduate degrees of a Master of Science and a Doctor of Philosophy in Statistics. An undergraduate minor in statistics is also available. Areas of specialization include bioinformatics, statistics in sports and experimental design.

The department of statistics is involved in research, teaching and statistical consulting for

the entire university. Because of its activities, its collaborative work with other disciplines gives graduate students a wide range of opportunities to work with individuals in a large number of disciplines and to learn practical applications of statistical principles from direct experience. The department maintains its traditional ties to research collaboration and consulting in agriculture, is developing new ties through the survey, statistics and psychometrics core facility, and has continued teaching a variety of statistical methods courses, graduate and undergraduate, to students throughout UNL.
