This joint honours program, offered jointly by the Department of Statistics and the Department of Economics, provides in-depth study across both disciplines in a four-year, 120-credit-hour Bachelor of Science (Honours). Students typically complete STAT 2150 in second year before entering the Honours stream in year three, building a foundation in microeconomic and macroeconomic theory alongside statistical inference and mathematical methods. The curriculum includes 21 credit hours of Economics electives and 15 credit hours of Statistics electives across years two through four. To continue in the program, students must maintain a Degree Grade Point Average of at least 3.00. Graduation requires the same 3.00 DGPA and a grade of C or better in every course contributing to the 120-credit-hour degree. Delivered by the Faculty of Science in conjunction with the Faculty of Arts, the program suits students seeking rigorous quantitative training for careers or graduate study spanning economics and statistics.
