• Biometry is the development and application of statistical methods to biological problems.
  • The program is interdisciplinary, providing formal course work in statistics and biology, consulting experience, and supervised research combining the two areas.
  • Students completing the program will understand biological processes and have the ability to apply and extend a broad range of statistical concepts and techniques to biological problems.
  • The biometry program is distinct from the MSc statistics program in its interdisciplinary emphasis and corresponding reduced depth in statistics.
