To take the Applied Statistics Comprehensive Examination (ASCE), students
must:
- have a GPA of at least 3.00
- have completed at least 21 credits in the program
- have completed at least five of the six required courses
- be currently enrolled in the sixth required course, if
it has not yet been taken
The examination will consist of three individual one-hour parts, all of which
must be passed.
- The first part will cover the material in MAT 7404 and MAT 7405
- The second part will cover the material in MAT 8400 and MAT 8401
- The third part will cover the material in MAT 8406 and MAT 8412.
Information
- Students must pass the examination within the six year period allotted
for the degree, that time beginning when the first course in the program is
taken.
- Students are permitted one re-examination for any parts they did not
pass, whenever the examination is offered.
- Students may not bring notes or books; however, calculators may be
permitted for some parts of the exam.
- Students who enrolled in the MSAS program prior to Fall, 2005 have two
options: (1) taking 33 credits, including MAT 8424 Statistics Practicum or
(2) taking 30 credits and the ASCE. Once an option is chosen, that decision
is final.
- Students must submit their application to take the ASCE to the Director
of the Applied Statistics Graduate Program.
- The
Graduate Academic Calendar lists the deadlines by which applications to
take the ASCE must be submitted. The dates on which the examinations are
given are determined by the Applied Statistics Graduate Committee. The date
of the ASCE may be later than the date for the comprehensive examinations
listed in the Graduate Academic Calendar.
