Program details
Overview
At Mount Saint Vincent University, Statistics is taught within the Mathematics and Statistics department as part of the Bachelor of Science program rather than as a stand-alone degree. The department offers a Minor in Statistics and Data Analytics, requiring a defined set of MATH courses plus additional credits selected from options such as MATH 2206, 2283, 2284, 3303, 3304, or CMPS 1155, and a Concentration in Applied Statistics built around a fixed sequence of MATH courses; students who want to study the subject more deeply can instead take the Mathematics major, which includes a dedicated statistics stream. Course content covers the collection, analysis, interpretation, and presentation of data, with applications described across the natural sciences, engineering, social sciences, and humanities, as well as in government, business, and industry. Because of overlap with the Mathematics major and minor requirements, students majoring in Mathematics must satisfy their minor in an area other than Mathematics, Statistics, or Data Analytics, and Mathematics or Statistics minors cannot be combined to satisfy the Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science double-minor option. The program suits BSc students who want statistical training either alongside another major or embedded within a mathematics major.
