The Honours Mathematics & Statistics program offers broad-based, interdisciplinary courses which develop problem-solving and analytic thinking skills.
The shape of a flower, the form of a molecule, the structure of galaxies – all of these reveal patterns; patterns which can be discovered and studied with mathematics and statistics. Mathematics studies the patterns themselves, discovering subtle and sometimes unexpected features. It also has the ability to clarify and predict properties, which explains its remarkable usefulness throughout the sciences. Statistics studies patterns which arise in data, and is used to distinguish regularities from chance.
Essential skills, such as quantitative and statistical reasoning, are acquired in this program through courses taught by recognized leaders in research and teaching.
