Although the two fields within the program have different requirements in terms of specific courses and qualifying examination areas, there is a considerable degree of interaction and commonality between them, from both philosophical and practical viewpoints. Philosophically, this commonality relates to the methodology of constructing and validating models of specific real-world situations. The major areas of specialization in applied mathematics are dynamical systems, mathematical biology, numerical analysis and operations research. Applied statistics encompasses the study and application of statistical procedures to data arising from real-world problems. Much of the emphasis in this field concerns problems originally arising in a biological setting. The major areas of specialization include linear and nonlinear models; bioassay; and survival analysis, life testing and reliability.<br><br>As a graduate student, you have the opportunity to make a contribution to solving important scientific and societal problems. Our proximity to the Fields Institute, the Institute for Quantum Computing, the Perimeter Institute and countless government, industry and academic partners make us an ideal place to engage in collaborative mathematical and statistical research.<br>The idea of working on a unique and novel project can seem both exciting and terrifying, but it is a tremendously rewarding experience and one through which we are here to help guide you.
