Statistics
Discovering patterns in data to reveal essential knowledge
Statistics is the study of how we learn from data, quantify uncertainty, and make sense of variation in the world around us. At Williams College, you will engage with statistics as a mathematical and computational discipline connected to real-world questions. The department offers a broad range of courses, from introductory classes to advanced theoretical and applied work.
Opportunities Await
You can pursue statistical work beyond the classroom through summer collaborations with faculty, independent projects or senior theses. These experiences allow you to investigate questions both within statistics and across a wide range of disciplines. Statistics prepares you not only for careers and graduate study, but also for thoughtful engagement with a world increasingly shaped by data.
