MS in Statistics: Elective Courses

Graduate courses crosslisted with the Statistics Department are approved as electives for the program. All courses from the list below are also approved electives.

Descriptions may be found in the Stanford Bulletin.

Other graduate courses (200 or above) may be authorized by the program adviser if they provide skills relevant to statistics or deal primarily with an application of statistics or probability and do not overlap with courses in the student's program. There is sufficient flexibility to accommodate students with interests in applications to business, computing, economics, engineering, health, operations research, and social sciences.
