Solve Real-World Problems With Applied Statistics.
Applied statistics is the implementation of statistical methods, techniques, and theories to real-world problems and situations in several disciplines, such as science, engineering, business, medicine, social sciences, and more. This important discipline involves collecting, summarizing, analyzing, interpreting, and presenting data to make informed decisions, solve problems, and answer questions.
Applied statisticians also use advanced techniques, such as machine learning algorithms, to extract insights and patterns from large datasets. Experts in applied statistics work in several settings: research institutions, the government, business and finance, universities, healthcare systems, and more.
With Michigan Tech's Online MS in Applied Statistics, you, too, can build the specialized skills to meet the growing demand for statistics and data professionals. MTU's distance-learning, research-based MS combines tested techniques with emerging technologies while maintaining the high standards of a Michigan Tech graduate education.
