Bachelor of Science - Applied Statistics and Data Analytics (Optional Co-op)

The applied statistics and actuarial science degree will provide students with a strong foundation in statistical methodology, experience in its applications, a solid background in the use of statistical computing packages, and the skills to communicate the results of statistical analysis. The actuary degree gives them an advantage in the fields of business, government, and industry, and also prepares them for advanced study in graduate school. Students will collaborate with specialists in both scientific and non-technical areas to design and conduct experiments and interpret the results. Diverse application areas for graduates include product design, biostatistics, actuarial science, quality control, and statistical forecasting.

An accelerated 4+1 option is available for students who wish to earn a BS in applied statistics and actuarial science and an MBA. The option is offered in conjunction with Saunders College of Business and allows students to obtain both degrees in five years of study.
