"The interdisciplinary M.S. Program in Statistics builds
upon UAF's strengths in the natural sciences by introducing a strong
quantitative alternative to existing programs. Graduates of this program
could be labeled quantitative biologists, biometricians, quantitative
geologists, geostatisticians, or mathematical statisticians depending upon
their specific coursework. In addition, this program will prepare
individuals for Ph.D. level work in statistics or their area of
application. Areas of specialization other than the natural sciences could
be considered as well including, for example, psychometrics and
econometrics."
