Statistics Department

History and Mission

Undergraduate student admissions in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics for Statistics as the major started in 2000. In 2009, the Department of Mathematics and Statistics was split, and the Department of Statistics was established. The joining of new members led to admitting graduate students for the MSc. program in mathematical and socio-economics statistics. Launching the Ph.D. program in Statistics in 2012 and the MSc. of Data Science in 2023 in the Statistics department provided more workspace for research. The Department of Statistics, the Mathematics, Electrical Engineering, and Computer Engineering departments, got together, and the new Faculty of Intelligent Systems Engineering and Data Science was established in 2021. Since 2022, the Department of Statistics has activated two research and technology centers, the Machine Learning and Data Science Laboratory and the Statistical Learning Laboratory. Currently, the Statistics Department, with 8 full-time assistant and associate professors, provides educational and research services to 200 undergraduate students, 13 master's students in Mathematical Statistics and Data Science, and 11 Ph.D. students.
