Qualifying exams
After the first year, and by the end of the third year, every student must pass one written qualifying exam in the theory of Mathematical Statistics (STAT 725 and STAT 726), and a written qualifying exam in one of the following areas: Qualifying Exam in Probability (STAT 705 and STAT 706) or Qualifying Exam in Applied Statistics (STAT 735 and STAT 736). The students will be allowed a maximum of two attempts at each of the exams in the first three years of the Ph.D. program. Each exam can be passed at the M.S. level (low pass) or Ph.D. level (high pass). To proceed with the Ph.D. program both exams must be passed at the Ph.D. level. If at least one exam is passed at the M.S. level, the student, if the academic record warrants it and the Graduate Committee approves of it, will end her/his program with an M.S. w88 online casino in Statistics and Data Science.
M.S. w88 online casino along the way to Ph.D
Students in the Ph.D. program in Statistics and Data Science may earn an M.S. w88 online casino in Mathematics with an emphasis in Statistics along the way to Ph.D., by satisfying the current M.S. w88 online casino requirements. Students qualify in the semester in which all w88 online casino requirements for the master's have been met. Students should apply to graduation using the paperwork required for an M.S. w88 online casino and a memo from the Statistics Graduate Program Director. A maximum of 24 credits (including a maximum of 18 700- level courses) used for the master’s w88 online casino can be applied to a Ph.D. w88 online casino, upon approval of the Program Director. The M.S. thesis credits used for an M.S. w88 online casino cannot be applied toward a Ph.D. w88 online casino. At the same time, the M.S. thesis credits can be counted as Ph.D. dissertation credits (upon Graduate Committee approval) if they have not been used for an M.S. w88 online casino. A maximum of 9 graduate credits earned outside of the program can be applied towards an M.S. Mathematics w88 online casino; these credits can be further applied to a Ph.D. w88 online casino as part of 24 credits transferred from M.S. to Ph.D. w88 online casino (in other words, up to 24 credits can be double-counted, and up to 9 credits can be triple-counted). PLEASE CHECK THE GRADUATE SCHOOL’S WEB SITE FOR CURRENT CREDIT TRANSFER POLICIES.
Admittance to candidacy
To be admitted into Ph.D. candidacy, after successfully completing the first 2-3 years of coursework and passing written qualifying exams, a student must pass an oral exam in the area of specialty. Students will be expected to complete their oral exam by the end of their third year. The exam is directed by the student's w88 online casino Advisory Committee. A student is expected to submit a written dissertation proposal to the w88 online casino Advisory Committee prior to exam. The purpose of the exam is two-fold, serving both as a subject-specific oral exam and defense of a dissertation proposal. It provides students an opportunity to formulate a clear plan for their dissertation research, and to strengthen their background following their written exams and in preparation for conducting their own dissertation research.
Ph.D. dissertation
A student will prepare a Ph.D. dissertation supervised by a w88 online casino faculty member in the Mathematics and Statistics department and approved by the student's w88 online casino Advisory Committee, followed by a public oral presentation. The dissertation is then submitted for the w88 online casino School and institutional approval.
w88 online casino School Academic Requirements
All w88 online casino students must maintain a cumulative w88 online casino GPA of 3.0. If their GPA drops below
3.0 they are either placed on probation or dismissed. Undergraduate courses will not count towards
w88 online casino GPA.
Probation: students whose cumulative w88 online casino GPA is 0.1 to 0.6 points below that needed for a 3.0
GPA are put on probation. Students are placed on academic probation for one semester. If they fail
to raise their cumulative GPA to 3.0 by the end of one semester, they are dismissed from their
w88 online casino program. Thesis, dissertation, S/U graded credits, and transfer credits have no impact on a
student’s GPA.
Dismissal: students whose cumulative w88 online casino GPA is 0.7 or more grade points below that needed
for a 3.0 GPA are dismissed. Dismissed students are no longer in a w88 online casino program but may take
graduate-level courses as a Grad Special. Students wishing to complete their w88 online casino must obtain
approval to take w88 online casino-level courses, raise their w88 online casino GPA to at least 3.0 and then re-apply to
a w88 online casino program. Any courses taken to raise their GPA will be included in the w88 online casino special/
transfer credit limitation (9 credits for master’s degrees).
