This might already have been mentioned, but this page describes how the rankings were done: Also, for the first time, U.S. News is ranking Ph.D. programs in statistics. These rankings are based solely on the rating of academics at statistics and biostatistics departments. I myself am looking into Masters programs in Statistics but now that I realize the US News rankings are only for PhD programs, I have to continue searching for some sort of guidance on which Masters programs are good.

I am looking into applying for graduate schools next year. I am interested in the more applied side of statistics. Hence, I am wondering if there are any stats/biostats masters programs out there where students not only take classes, but have to do a thesis or project before graduation. I will of course do my own research on this but if people on this forum already know anything about this, I would be very grateful for any information.
