When you study statistics at Park University, you will learn about basic concepts such as probability models, discrete random variables, normal distributions, confidence intervals and hypothesis testing. Once you have acquired the fundamental concepts, you will go on to apply these skills to one of three areas:
- The natural sciences: This includes biological investigation, hypothesis testing, sampling protocol and experimental design.
