Two sample programs follow. The first emphasizes applied statistical methodology and the second, statistical methodology, theory, and probability. They second option is recommended for those wishing to pursue graduate studies. It is assumed that a student has had an introductory statistics course at the 2000-level or higher before their junior year.

A minor other than mathematics is usually recommended, since mathematics is automatically part of the program. However, if a minor of mathematics is selected, the courses MAC 2311, 2312, and MAS 3105 may be counted toward the required 12 hours. This would increase the number of elective hours in the program.

Language credit earned for an Associate in Arts degree may be used to reduce the 12 hours listed. This also would increase the number of elective hours.
