Few studies have investigated the content of introductory statistics classes for medical school students in Japan. Yet, to assure the quality of university statistics courses and develop a standard curriculum for them, it is necessary to assess the current condition of statistics education.Therefore, we collected data on the type of course (i.e., course title and targeted year for the students), field of specialty of the lecturer, course contents, and which textbooks were pre-specified for the lecture by analyzing the syllabi of statistics courses published on university websites. Next, the result of the survey is summarized. Of the 80 universities surveyed, 45 universities provided the online sylabi for the introductory statistics course. We identified 26 different course titles for statistics classes. Thirty courses (73.3%) were intended for first-year students. Eightteen courses (54.5%) provided two credits. The most common field of specialty for statistics lecturers was mathematics (43.2%). Further, we found that the course contents included various subjects related to mathematics. A total of 35 textbooks were specified. Finally, the conclusion is that mathematical concepts seem to be taught more often than statistical practice in introductory statistics classes. Further, there were large variations in each item of analysis except the target year.

研究論文本報告では、統計教育大学間連携ネットワーク連携校6校で行われている統計関連科目のシラバスを分析し、文化情報学部における統計教育の時間数の多さと内容の多様性が明らかとなった。また、文化情報学部にて開講されているデータサイエンス科目を受講する学生に対し、授業評価アンケートを行った結果、グループ活動の重要さと理系・文系出身者での授業に対する印象の違いが明らかとなり、今後の授業作りに示唆を与える結果となった。In this research, we analyzed syllabuses of subjects about statistics which had been taught in six universities which belong to the organization about statistics education. In result from analyses, it was revealed that Faculty of Culture and Information Science has most statistics classes and various contents in six universities. On the other hand, we surveyed assessments of data science's classes by their students, and we got suggestions about the direction of class through facts that is importance of group work and the difference of idea between the arts students and sciences students.
