COURSE CURRICULUM

The Bachelor of Science (Honours) program in Statistics requires a total of 120.00 units, combining core courses, options, and electives. The core curriculum begins with foundational mathematics courses, including Linear Algebra (MATH 110) and Differential and Integral Calculus (MATH 120), each worth 6.00 units. Students then move on to more advanced topics such as Advanced Calculus (MATH 280), Real Analysis (MATH 281), and two levels of Statistics and Probability (STAT 268 and STAT 269). The program continues with higher-level courses like Probability II (STAT 353), Applied Methods in Statistics I (STAT 361), and R for Data Science (STAT 362), offering students practical tools for data analysis. The core culminates in STAT 463, Fundamentals of Statistical Inference, which lays the groundwork for understanding statistical theory and methods. In the option component, students complete 15.00 units of 300-level or above STAT courses, deepening their knowledge of statistical techniques. They also select 9.00 units from options such as Rings and Fields (MATH 210), Ordinary Differential Equations (MATH 225), or additional higher-level courses in mathematics and statistics. The remaining 60.00 units are filled with electives, offering flexibility to explore other disciplines or specialize further in statistical areas. This structure prepares graduates for careers in data science, research, business analytics, and other fields requiring strong statistical and mathematical expertise.
