Statistical Science: Theory and Methods is a Specialist program in the Faculty of Arts & Science at the University of Toronto St. George campus, leading to an Honours Bachelor of Science. The program emphasizes probability and the theory of statistical inference as the mathematical foundations of statistical data analysis, developing expertise in statistical theory and methods and their application to problems across a range of contexts. Coursework totals 11.0 to 12.0 credits: first year covers 2.5 to 3.0 credits in statistics, programming, and mathematics; second year adds 2.5 credits in advanced calculus and probability and statistics; the higher years cover 6.0 to 6.5 credits emphasizing theoretical statistics and mathematical foundations. It is a limited-enrolment program: continuing students with 4.0 to 8.5 credits completed need a minimum of 63% in required mathematics and statistics prerequisites, though meeting the minimum does not guarantee a space. The program normally takes four years to complete full-time, with a five-year option through the Arts & Science Internship Program (ASIP) for students who add a work-integrated learning term.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) with six subjects at the 4U/M level, including English (ENG4U/EAE4U) and Calculus & Vectors (MCV4U); the co-op component of Grade 12 courses is not used for admission. Enrolment in the Specialist requires students to have completed 4.0 to 8.5 credits and achieve a minimum of 63% in required mathematics and statistics prerequisite courses, depending on credits completed and space available; meeting the minimum grade does not guarantee admission.
