This section specifies the Mathematics minor (Statistics option) discipline requirements only. Students need to combine these minor requirements with another science minor or major other than the mathematics major or mathematics minor. Please refer to the Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Arts, or Bachelor of Integrated Studies section for information on additional requirements.
Declaration requirements
Students admitted to the Bachelor of Science may formally declare a major or minor if they have a minimum CGPA of 2.00 and meet the declaration requirements for the subject discipline. BSc students are expected to declare a major or minor by the time they have completed 60 credits.
Bachelor of Science students wishing to declare a Mathematics minor (Statistics option) must complete one of MATH 112, MATH 211, MATH 221, or MATH 255/ENGR 255, with a minimum grade of C+, prior to their formal declaration.
