Graduate Certificate for Applied Statistics

University of Colorado - Denver

A bachelor's degree (not necessarily in mathematics or statistics) from an accredited college or university. A grade point average (GPA) of 3.0 or above during their bachelors degree. Students must have taken three semesters of calculus (through multivariate calculus), linear algebra, and a calculus-based statistics course that covers basic probability and statistical distributions.Admitted students are generally expected to have completed several additional upper-division mathematics courses on top of the minimum requirements, though students from non-mathematics backgrounds who meet the minimum requirements and have exceptional track records will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Subject to approval by the Director of the Program in Statistics and the Graduate Committee, students with prerequisite deficiencies may be admitted with the understanding that those deficiencies must be removed after admission. In such cases, credits earned for deficiency coursework cannot be applied to the graduate certificate.
