Major Conc. Statistics (B.A.)

Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) - Major Concentration Statistics(46 Credits)

    Offered by:Mathematics and Statistics
    Degree:Bachelor of Arts

Program Requirement:

The program provides training in statistics with a mathematical core. Taken together with the B.A.; Supplementary Minor Concentration in Statistics, these two programs constitute an equivalent of the B.Sc.; Major in Statistics program offered by the Faculty of Science. With satisfactory performance in an appropriate selection of courses, these two programs can lead to the accreditation "A.Stat" from the Statistical Society of Canada, which is regarded as the entry level requirement for a statistician practicing in Canada. Students interested in this accreditation should consult an academic adviser.

Guidelines for Course Selection

Students who received advanced standing or the CEGEP equivalent of the 100-level Math courses listed below are no longer required to take them. Whenever an exemption without credits is granted for a 200-level and above required Math course, the latter must be replaced with a complementary course chosen in consultation with a program advisor.

Students are strongly advised to complete all required courses by the end of U2.

Where appropriate, Honours courses may be substituted for equivalent courses. Students planning to pursue
graduate studies are encouraged to make such substitutions.



    Required Courses (34 credits)

    * Students who have taken an equivalent of MATH 203 at CEGEP or elsewhere must replace it by another course from the Complementary course list.
    ** Students must take MATH 204 before taking MATH 324.
