Why an Applied Statistics Degree From Le Moyne?

Data drives business, informs our decisions and protects public health and the world we live in. It makes it possible to analyze clinical trials and forecast the risk of investment portfolios. With the right intelligence at our fingertips, we have the power to do everything from measuring consumer behavior to predicting tomorrow’s weather.

In Le Moyne’s applied statistics program, you’ll build the skills to collect, manage, and interpret complex data sets. Through hands-on coursework grounded in mathematics and modern statistical methods, you’ll learn how to analyze real data in your major field of study using the tools and techniques employers rely on in today’s data-driven world.

A strong foundation in applied statistics gives you a competitive advantage across disciplines—from biology and nursing to economics, education, and beyond. Whether you pursue graduate study or careers in healthcare, business, research, or analytics, you’ll graduate prepared to turn data into insight and insight into impact.

The applied statistics minor helped me in applying for graduate school, as many schools require an Intro to Statistics. Now, I don’t have to take it in graduate school. I also believe the minor aided in my acceptance into graduate school, as it made my application stand out against other undergraduate psychology majors.
