California Baptist University
Data has become the language of the world. It’s everywhere. With a degree in statistics and data analytics, students will be fluent in today’s high-tech economy. In the scope of a career as a data scientist, students can work in such varied fields as climatology, ecology and more. The future belongs to data mining scientists who engineer and apply statistical analysis to interdisciplinary problems.
Learn through experience
At CBU, we’re pushing the envelope, discovering new algorithms and finding new patterns
and insights amid vast broadband fields of zeros and ones, things no mind has seen
before. This major is for students who want to pursue a challenging and rewarding
career that uses their natural problem-solving abilities and technological skills
to solve “real world” problems.
Use the latest technology
CBU faculty and staff have access to supercomputers located all over the country,
and can model, simulate and predict using big sample data that is bootstrapped or
resampled thousands of times from these supercomputers. This means that CBU students are
trained at the bleeding edge of technology and can use the most advanced software
available.
An introduction to data mining, management and statistical programming techniques using comprehensive and widely available tools.
This course studies experimental designs with corresponding models and analyses critical for students in the empirical sciences.
This course provides the tools to create and critically evaluate data visualizations. Focus will be on statistical graphics, graphics that display statistical data.
As you make decisions about college, keep in mind the full social, spiritual and educational experience awaiting you at CBU. Here, you will be supported by professors, staff and fellow students who will help you discover your strengths and challenge you to do more than you ever thought you could.

"I fell in love with statistics when I took an AP Statistics class in high school.
I like the community here among fellow stats students, and the relationships I have
with my professors. I'm hoping to become a business or financial analyst, and the
math and stats professors go above and beyond to make sure that I am thriving not
only at CBU but in my future career."
Jordan Howard, 2018
"I came to CBU undeclared and after my first Intro to Statistics class I was hooked
by the opportunities the quantitative reasoning opened up for me. I chose to pursue
a career in statistics because it provides me with the opportunity to analyze data
from so many different fields. Everyone in the statistics program at CBU is there
to see you succeed and excel to your highest level and then past that point. I am
so thankful to have been apart of this program, it has been incredible!"
Bryce Benlian, 2018
"I really enjoy the community this program offers. I felt like the professors cared
about my future, and they were a huge help in my search for a future career. I enjoy
using research to help improve society and I hope to continue in the research field."
Keira Burgeson, 2018
Forty-two years ago, God called me out of a comfortable job in research chemistry into a worldwide ministry in the mathematical sciences. God’s call drew me to travel, administrate and coordinate national and international teams of scientists and educators in academic institutions across the former Soviet Union, China, the Caribbean and even 40 miles north of Fairbanks, Alaska.
In 2005, I accepted the Christ as my Lord and Savior through John chapter 11, the Lazarus story. I believe that Christian teachers should be God’s stewards. When I finished my Ph.D. program in UC Irvine, God convicted me that I would be called to give an account of how I have administered everything I've been given. As a steward, I would not like to lose any student so that none of them would fall behind.
