Why study Statistics?
Statistics involves collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data, and calls for strong mathematical skills and an interest in problem-solving. Statistics and statistical modelling are essential and in-demand skills that are used in many types of research and industries, from science and medicine to economics and finance.
A statistics major or minor in the BSc General degree is designed to provide a broad view of the discipline and allows for customization and flexibility with courses and program direction.
