Description:Quantify risk. Predict uncertain events. Forecast financial performance. In Statistics, you use math and computer systems to collect, analyze and model data.

These are in-demand skills for insurance companies, securities and investment firms, banks and businesses. They all need skilled statisticians who can collect data and analyze it, looking for patterns that explain behaviour or describe the world as it is.

As a student in Science, you'll also have the opportunity to apply to the Science Internship Program. This program facilitates paid and career-related placements so you can work full-time for 8 to 16 months, following the third year of study. As with a traditional co-op degree, your graduation will be delayed by one year while you acquire marketable skills and work experience. Internship placement opportunities are available in the private, public, and not-for-profit sectors - so don't miss out! Click here for more information.
