B.Sc. in Statistics/Biology
Statistics is the science of collecting, classifying, presenting, and interpreting data.
An undergraduate major in Statistics/Biology is designed to equip students with sufficient background and experience to enable them to implement various standard statistical analyses on data from the real world, especially from biological and medical fields. The program includes a combination of statistics and biology so a student will understand the bases of statistical methodology and their application to the biological science.
The field of Statistics/Biology offers a variety of exciting career opportunities: Statisticians/Biostatisticians at the B.Sc. level are needed in industry (in particular, the pharmaceutical industry), in government, and in clinical hospitals. e.g.
