Requirements for Statistics Undergraduate Majors
The new Statistics degree and course and re-labeling
is now official! This means that there are now TWO ways to complete the Statistics
major requirements, under the OLD requirements or NEW requirements. Remember that
you must follow ONE of the two plans and that you cannot mix and match courses
between plans! In each case, the old course numbers are given in parentheses.
This is only a list of required courses. Please
check the catalog or with your advisor for complete listings. This website is
maintained as a service and does not replace the UNM Catalog! In case of conflict
between this web page and the UNM Catalog, the UNM catalog holds! If you do
not have an undergraduate advisor, please contact the department Academic Advisor.
