The relevance and importance of teaching science in general and Statistics in particular in teaching and research to Ethiopia is thus apparent. As a developing Country aspiring to achieve overall advancement, the country has the option to combine both low and high level knowledge in Statistics to benefit its society particularly in the areas of Biological and Physical Sciences, Agricultural, Business, Finance, Economics, Engineering, and Many other fields. The country promotes the science of Statistics through advanced level university study and research. This document is the Harmonized Curriculum of Statistics teaching for the Bachelor Degree Program across the various universities Nationwide.  Additionally, the department offers an undergraduate degree in Statistics in the University with the objectives of the critical reason of launching this program is to fill the human resource gap in various organizations. So far, five batches (more than 278 students of which 167 and 111 are male and female respectively) had graduated with the BSc degree program. Currently, estimated more than 10 second year students and 30 fourth year undergraduate students are learning this program. The department are also engaged in giving different practical activity especially on Research methods and Sample practice, and Statistical Quality Control course in different statistical agency and different Industrial Park here today.
