Bachelor of Arts - Statistics

Statistics involves the modelling of data from virtually every field including biology, economics and finance, engineering, environmental science and medicine, and deals with inferences using mathematical tools and probability theory. It is also a desirable prerequisite for almost any area of learning since it can serve as an extremely effective tool for training in logical reasoning.

Memorial University employs undergraduate students in the Math Help Centre and to mark course assignments. Some students qualify for summer research employment funded by the National Science and Engineering Research Council.
