Introduction to undergraduate mathematics and statistics in the United States
Generally speaking, the major of mathematical statistics in American universities has two directions, one is theoretical research and the other is practical application. Its basic research directions include: sample design, data mining, stochastic process, establishment of statistical model, model selection, etc. Here I will take you to know more about the undergraduate mathematics and statistics major in the United States.

Introduction to American Undergraduate Mathematics and Statistics 1, American Undergraduate Mathematics and Statistics Major

Mathematics and statistics in American universities generally have two directions: one focuses on theoretical research and the other focuses on practical application. If you choose the theoretical research direction, it is mainly the specialized statistics department or the statistics department under the mathematics department; If you choose the practical direction, the coverage will be wider, such as biostatistics, economic statistics and social statistics.

The basic research directions of mathematics and statistics include: sample design, data mining, stochastic process, establishment of statistical model, model selection, time series, nonparametric statistical methods, survival analysis, spatial statistics, various introduction theories, etc. Applied research directions include: biostatistics, environmental statistics, financial statistics, economic statistics, agricultural statistics, etc.

Colleges and universities offering mathematics and statistics in the United States have different courses, but some courses have the following courses:

Statistical theory and application, linear regression model, applied regression analysis, statistical inference, qualitative data analysis, biostatistics theory, social science statistics, probability statistics, mathematical probability, basic probability, model allocation theory, time series analysis, numerical calculation application, linear statistical theory, nonparametric statistics, experimental design and analysis, generalized linear model, etc.

2. Recommended by popular universities of mathematical statistics in the United States:

Yale University

Yale University has a good major in mathematics and statistics. Therefore, Yale University has created a new project by integrating and adjusting the original statistical project, but at present it will keep both MAS (old) and MSSDS (new).

The new project provides a wide range of training contents, including statistical theory (focusing on basic knowledge, Bayesian theory, decision theory, nonparametric statistics), probability theory, stochastic process, asymptotic, information theory, machine learning, data analysis, statistical calculation and graphic method.

Duke University

Duke University's mathematics and statistics major belongs to the College of Arts and Sciences, which mainly provides students with modern comprehensive education in statistical theory, methods and calculation. Duke University has many branches of statistics, including doctoral direction, data science and analysis, health data science, finance and economy, market research and business analysis, social science and policy.

Columbia University

The mathematics and statistics course of Columbia University requires at least two units and at least 30 units. Before registering for this course, students must meet with the designated teacher adviser to approve their study plan. 13 of the students majoring in mathematics and statistics at Columbia University chose banking and finance after graduation, and 13% continued their higher education. More than 50% of the graduates stayed in new york.
