Cumulative list of Yale Statistics Department courses

Here is the list of all courses taught in the Statistics Department, or taught in another department but with a cross-listing in Statistics, since 1972.

The faculty have been less than systematic in the allocation of course numbers, and in the choice of course titles. Each table collects together courses with similar subject matter. Blank entries in the first(or second) column imply that the number (or title) is the same as for the preceding entry in the table.
