Overview

Faculty have strong expertise in broad areas of statistics, machine learning and data science ranging from survey statistics, censor statistics, data linkage, survival analysis to empirical processes, learning theory, Bayesian statistics, network analysis, geometry & statistics, and other modern topics such as foundational aspects of deep learning.

Careers

Graduate students in the Mathematical Statistics program at the University of Maryland find that the combination of rigorous classes, faculty-student Research Interaction Teams (RIT’s), computational support, and thesis research prepare them well for the job market.

All recent graduates have found good positions in academia, government, or the private sector. In particular, the nearby presence of the federal government offers almost unlimited opportunities for graduates with advanced degrees in statistics.
