Overview

All master students in this Master of Science degree programme from Kansas State University should have a background in mathematics at least at the level of calculus, along with prior knowledge of matrix or linear algebra.

Two master’s degree completion options are available for each track: the master’s report option and the non-report option.

For the master’s report option, the student must take 30 hours of coursework and write a report for 2 additional hours of credit in STAT 898 .

For the non report option, the student must take 36 hours of coursework and pass a comprehensive exam for the Mathematical Statistics track, or complete a Capstone Project for the Data Science and Analytics track.

Students must select either the report option or the non-report option by the first week of the fall semester of their second year in the MS programme. At this time, the student is required to file a programme of study. Students that do not file a programme of study that specifies an explicit choice of degree option in a timely manner will be automatically assigned to the non-report option. Students are not allowed to switch between report versus non-report options after filing the programme of study unless the switch is approved by the Graduate Programme Committee.

Students that are interested in pursuing the report option should contact potential faculty advisors by the end of their first year in the MS programme in order to allow time to identify a suitable project.

For both the Report Option and the Non-Report option: Students must be enrolled in at least one hour the semester in which they plan to complete the final examination or defend their report and graduate. In addition, international students should check with International Student and Scholar Services to be certain of the enrollment required.
