The degrees of Master of Applied Statistics (see appropriate calendar entry), Master of Science, and Doctor of Philosophy are offered in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics. The Masters' degrees are offered by full-time and part-time studies.


32.17.1 Specific Requirements for the M.Sc. in Mathematics

Every student for the M.Sc. in Mathematics is required to complete one of two options:

  1. Option 1: MATH 696A/B, two courses from MATH 6160, 6310, 6332, 6351, and a minimum of 9 further credit hours in courses chosen from the departmental course offerings, excluding MATH 6299, and a thesis as per General Regulations, Theses and Reports.

  2. Option 2: MATH 6299, 696A/B, three courses from MATH 6160, 6310, 6332, 6351, and a minimum of 9 further credit hours in courses chosen from the departmental course offerings.


32.17.2 Specific Requirements for the M.Sc. in Statistics

Every student for the M.Sc. in Statistics is required to complete a minimum of 18 credit hours in graduate courses including STAT 6510 and one of STAT 6500 or STAT 6560 as well as the series STAT 697A/B or the completion of an additional 3 credit hour graduate course from the list below (courses STAT 6509 and STAT 6519 cannot be used to satisfy this requirement). A thesis is required as per General Regulations, Theses and Reports.

Students who already hold a Master of Applied Statistics are only required to complete STAT 6510 and one of STAT 6500 or STAT 6560 and a thesis as per General Regulations, Theses and Reports.
