I have a very large SQL Server 2008 R2 database (1.5TB) and will be copying some data from column to column within the same table. I've been told that the schema has a large number of indexes and was wondering if there is a default query or script that will rebuild all the indexes. Have also been advised to update the statistics at the same time?
Each of the 30 tables has one clustered index and 13x non-clustered indexes
Thanks.

Daniel's script appears to be a good all encompassing solution, but even he admitted that his laptop ran out of memory. Here is an option I came up with. I based my procedure off of Mohammad Nizamuddin's post on TechNet. I added an initial cursor loop that pulls all the database names into a temporary table and then uses that to pull all the base table names from each of those databases.
You can optionally pass the fill factor you would prefer and specify a target database if you do not want to re-index all databases.
--===============================================================
-- Name: sp_RebuildAllIndexes
-- Arguements: [Fill Factor], [Target Database name]
-- Purpose: Loop through all the databases on a server and
-- compile a list of all the table within them.
-- This list is then used to rebuild indexes for
-- all the tables in all the database. Optionally,
-- you may pass a specific database name if you only
-- want to reindex that target database.

CREATE PROCEDURE sp_RebuildAllIndexes(

Try the following script:
Exec sp_msforeachtable 'SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON; ALTER INDEX ALL ON ? REBUILD'
GO
Also
I prefer(After a long search) to use the following script, it contains @fillfactor determines how much percentage of the space on each leaf-level page is filled with data.
DECLARE @TableName VARCHAR(255)
DECLARE @sql NVARCHAR(500)
DECLARE @fillfactor INT
SET @fillfactor = 80
DECLARE TableCursor CURSOR FOR
SELECT QUOTENAME(OBJECT_SCHEMA_NAME([object_id]))+'.' + QUOTENAME(name) AS TableName
FROM sys.tables
OPEN TableCursor
FETCH NEXT FROM TableCursor INTO @TableName
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
SET @sql = 'ALTER INDEX ALL ON ' + @TableName + ' REBUILD WITH (FILLFACTOR = ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(3),@fillfactor) + ')'
EXEC (@sql)
FETCH NEXT FROM TableCursor INTO @TableName
END
CLOSE TableCursor
DEALLOCATE TableCursor
GO

and if you want to Check Index Fragmentation on Indexes in a Database, try the following script:
SELECT dbschemas.[name] as 'Schema',
dbtables.[name] as 'Table',
dbindexes.[name] as 'Index',
indexstats.avg_fragmentation_in_percent,
indexstats.page_count
FROM sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats (DB_ID(), NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL) AS indexstats

--Arguments Data Type Description
-------------- ------------ ------------
--@FillFactor [int] Specifies a percentage that indicates how full the Database Engine should make the leaf level
-- of each index page during index creation or alteration. The valid inputs for this parameter
-- must be an integer value from 1 to 100 The default is 0.
-- For more information, see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms177459.aspx.
--@PadIndex [varchar](3) Specifies index padding. The PAD_INDEX option is useful only when FILLFACTOR is specified,
-- because PAD_INDEX uses the percentage specified by FILLFACTOR. If the percentage specified
-- for FILLFACTOR is not large enough to allow for one row, the Database Engine internally
-- overrides the percentage to allow for the minimum. The number of rows on an intermediate
-- index page is never less than two, regardless of how low the value of fillfactor. The valid
-- inputs for this parameter are ON or OFF. The default is OFF.
-- For more information, see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188783.aspx.
--@SortInTempDB [varchar](3) Specifies whether to store temporary sort results in tempdb. The valid inputs for this
-- parameter are ON or OFF. The default is OFF.
-- For more information, see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188281.aspx.
--@OnlineRebuild [varchar](3) Specifies whether underlying tables and associated indexes are available for queries and data
-- modification during the index operation. The valid inputs for this parameter are ON or OFF.
-- The default is OFF.
-- Note: Online index operations are only available in Enterprise edition of Microsoft
-- SQL Server 2005 and above.
-- For more information, see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191261.aspx.
--@DataCompression [varchar](4) Specifies the data compression option for the specified index, partition number, or range of
-- partitions. The options for this parameter are as follows:
-- > NONE - Index or specified partitions are not compressed.
-- > ROW - Index or specified partitions are compressed by using row compression.
-- > PAGE - Index or specified partitions are compressed by using page compression.
-- The default is NONE.
-- Note: Data compression feature is only available in Enterprise edition of Microsoft
-- SQL Server 2005 and above.
-- For more information about compression, see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc280449.aspx.
--@MaxDOP [int] Overrides the max degree of parallelism configuration option for the duration of the index
-- operation. The valid input for this parameter can be between 0 and 64, but should not exceed
-- number of processors available to SQL Server.
-- For more information, see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189094.aspx.
