Program Description In today’s data-driven world, statisticians are in high demand. Students will get the skills they need to help businesses market new products, researchers evaluate medical treatments, governments shape effective public policy, and more.

In one of the world’s top centres for statistics, students will learn to design experiments and surveys, explore and analyze data, simulate complex systems, and extract meaningful information.

Students will also get experience in statistical computing, forecasting, mathematical modelling, and statistical process control — all skills that will make students highly marketable. Not to mention up to two years of paid work experience for students who enroll in co-op.

Where students apply those skills is up to them. The University of Waterloo grads go on to work in a huge range of fields, including biology, business, engineering, environmental science, finance, manufacturing, and the health sciences.
