What you study	Statistics	Mathematics Statistics
What it is	You study the mathematics of collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data to answer questions and solve real-world problems. The co-op option lets you do paid work terms at employers who use statistics, alternating with school semesters, so you can test the work before committing fully. This suits people who want hands-on experience in their field while they learn, or who are still deciding whether applied statistics work appeals to them.	You study the mathematical methods for collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data. The program is heavy on probability, theory, and computational skills rather than applied data science alone. The co-op stream lets you work in an actual job for four months at a time between semesters, giving you real workplace experience alongside coursework. This suits students who want rigorous math training and the chance to apply it early in actual industries like finance, health care, or government.
