What research has led to this request?
This course will prepare students for their capstone project in the new statistics major. Students will gain experience with the typesetting software, public speaking, and synthesizing information across several courses. Students will also gain experience in some key skills needed upon graduation (building a resume and searching for jobs in the field).
What impact will this request have on existing academic programs?
This course will support the new statistics major.
What financial costs are associated with this request?
None
If NO change in cost is anticipated, how is this possible?
We have recently hired a new faculty member in statistics to support the major. Therefore, the current faculty members will be able to teach the class in their regular load.
