Following are three options that students may choose according to
their field of interest. It should be understood that these options
specify a minimum requirement in each case. It is strongly recommended
that they be supplemented by additional course work. Students
planning to specialize in Statistics 960 should contact the
mathematical sciences department for a suitably designed program.
On admission, first-year students are assigned codes on the basis of a
placement test in mathematics. The codes indicate readiness for regular
math courses of various levels or the need for developmental courses
(50:640:041-042). Students are required either to place out of the
developmental sequence or to complete the sequence as prerequisite for
any other course in mathematics, statistics, or computer science.
Students who are planning to take actuarial examinations are advised to contact the chair of the department.
