Requirements
Admission Requirements: Applicants must hold a master's degree in statistics or mathematics, or a qualification deemed equivalent. Before applying, candidates must contact faculty members and secure a supervisor willing to direct their research, since an offer of admission can only be made once a professor has agreed to that role. Applicants must also submit three reference letters and a curriculum vitae, with external candidates additionally providing a motivation letter. Reading and writing competence in both French and English is expected, though these are not formal conditions of admission.
