Doctor of Science in Statistics

We are among the first doctoral programs in statistics in China. In 1981, the Probability and Statistics Discipline became one of the first doctoral programs in China, and stayed as a national key second-tier discipline in the China Discipline Ranking in 1988, 2002 and 2007. In 2011, as the Academic Degrees Committee of the State Council re-defined Statistics as a first-tier discipline, we were also among the first doctoral programs in Statistics, and ranked fourth nationwide in the 2012 China Discipline Ranking. In 2017, we were selected as a national “Double First-Class” discipline and ranked third in the Fourth China Discipline Ranking.  In 2022,  our program in statistics stayed as a national “Double First-Class” discipline.
