Financial support is available in the form of academic year Teaching Assistant appointments. A limited number of TA positions are available each year. 参观 Teaching Assistantships page for more information.
Western Regional 研究生项目 (WRGP)
The master's degree in 统计科学 is part of the Western Regional 研究生项目 (WRGP). Any student who is a resident of one of the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education's (WICHE) member states, and is accepted into the M.S. Statistics program, is eligible for the in-state (resident) tuition rate. The College of Graduate Studies will verify student eligibility for this program during the application process and will notify the student directly of the tuition rate once they are accepted by the department. For further information, including a list of the WICHE member states, visit the WRGP page of the Office of Graduate 招生.
Intercollegiate and Interdisciplinary Education
The University of Idaho Statistics group is an intercollegiate, interdisciplinary team that emphasizes broad applications as well as theoretical aspects of statistics. In addition to research within the discipline, faculty collaborate actively with researchers from the physical, 生物, 以及社会科学, promoting campus-wide cooperation in investigation of statistical problems. There is also close academic liaison with the Statistics faculty at nearby Washington State University.
