About the Department

The Department of Statistics at North Carolina State University was founded in 1941 by Gertrude M. Cox and is one of the oldest and largest statistics programs in the country. The Department has 40 faculty members, most of whom are housed in SAS Hall on the University’s main campus, and more than 260 undergraduate and 150 graduate students. We are the “birthplace” of SAS Institute, the world’s largest privately owned software company, and one which specializes in statistical applications.

The Department maintains a close relationship with SAS and other industry partners through student programs and activities. The Department has expertise in a number of research areas (see https://statistics.sciences.ncsu.edu/research/research-areas/) and strong ties with the Data Science Academy (https://datascienceacademy.ncsu.edu/) and the Genetics and Genomics Academy (https://gga.ncsu.edu/) at NC State.

Our graduate program, which is the top producer of statistics PhDs, was recently ranked 11th in the nation and 28th in the world (see https://statistics.sciences.ncsu.edu/know-us/rankings-awards-stats/); we also have a thriving online master’s program.

The primary function of the Department is to achieve outstanding research, teaching, mentoring, consulting and collaborations on campus and world-wide, within a cohesive and diverse department, where all students, faculty, and staff receive fair and equitable treatment.
