A student pursuing the Ph.D. co-major program must satisfy the requirements of both departments. In the past, co-major degrees at the Ph.D. level were awarded jointly with Biomathematics, Crop Science, Economics and Operations Research. The dissertation must embody the results of original research of a standard that would warrant publication in a research journal from one or both of the two fields.
Required Course Work
The minimum set of courses required by the Department of Statistics is
- ST 512R: Statistical Methods and lab
- ST 521-522: Statistical Theory and labs
- ST 552: Linear Models and lab
- ST 715: Theory of Sampling
- ST 711: Design of Experiments OR ST 730: Applied Time Series
- ST 841: Statistical Consulting
- 12 hours of Statistics Electives
The other department will impose similar requirements. Students are encouraged to take ST 810A “Preparing for Research.”
Graduate Advisory Committee
The student’s advisory committee must include at least two members from the Department of Statistics, one of which will serve as co-chair. The co-chair must have FULL status in the Department of Statistics.
Examinations
Ph.D. Co-Major students are required to pass the Basic Exam at the PhD level, the Preliminary Oral Exam and the Final Oral Exam. Co-Major students are not required to complete the Preliminary Written Exam.
Required Documents The documents required for this degree are identical to those required for the Ph.D. degree. See pages 22. All documents must be approved by both departments as well as the Graduate School.
