I have finished all my course work to earn my Bachelor of Science in Mathematics - Statistics. All that is left now is to wait for the paperwork to process.
Also I have been accepted into graduate school for statistics and awarded a teaching assistantship, this means they will wave my tuition cost for graduate school and give me a stipend to live on, and in exchange I will either be a teacher's aid or teach a low level stats or math class. So a master's degree in statistics is my next goal.
A Bachelor of Science

A Bachelor of Science

Congratulations on the achievement!
What university are you going to for your graduate degree?
I know a couple of graduate math/stat students locally that are doing quite well working at a startup in big data analysis for corporations and the city.

I am staying here in Montana, continuing my education at Montana State University. Yeah, statistics/math majors are high in demand, we live in the a age of big data and they need people that know how to handle those data. And there is a big difference between having a BA in statistics and having an MA in it, so going a few more years, I hope, will pay off.Philip wrote:Congratulations on the achievement!

That's awesome! You going to look for a job eventually or just want to become a professor and teach others?jeremyboycool wrote:I have finished all my course work to earn my Bachelor of Science in Mathematics - Statistics. All that is left now is to wait for the paperwork to process.
