*students may be exempted from CIS*1650 upon taking a computer science assessment of computing skills. If exempted from CIS*1650, you are advised to take CIS*2650 in the first semester.

**if STAT*2100 taken in semester 3, STAT*2050 is recommended but not required

***a Statistics major must include 2.00 or more credits in Statistics at the 4000 level (which may include MATH*4070, MATH*4240) and must include at least 6.00 credits at the 3000 or 4000 level from the program committee approved list of science electives

Honours Program Minor

A total of 5.00 credits in Statistics and Mathematics is required to complete the Minor, at least 3.00 credits of which are in Statistics and at least 1.50 in Mathematics. The required courses are MATH*1200, MATH*1210, (MATH*2150 or MATH*2160), (STAT*2040 or STAT*2100), STAT*2050, STAT*3100, STAT*3110, STAT*3240. To complete the minor it is recommended to take courses from STAT*3210, STAT*3320, STAT*4080, STAT*4350. (Students are strongly urged to take mathematics courses as electives such as MATH*2130, MATH*2200, MATH*3240.)
