Anyone here a Statistics major?
I'm planning on changing my major to Statistics, and was wondering what the required courses are for the degree? I understand the internal transfer requirements, as they're very clear. What I don't understand are the required courses for graduation.
The best resource according to my googling is this: https://www.stat.sfu.ca/content/dam/sfu/stat/documents/Synopsis Courses for students specializing in other disciplines-UpDate Sept16-2015.pdf, but it only shows ~14 courses for the major? That seems a little low. I've also looked at this: http://www.sfu.ca/students/calendar/2016/spring/programs/statistics/major/bachelor-of-science.html which indicates 21-24 courses, which seems rather low... right?
I also have a question on this:
Thanks in advance.

I also have a question on this:
- In addition to the above requirements, students must also satisfy
Faculty of Science degree requirements to complete a minimum of 120
units including additional upper division units to total a minimum of 44
upper division units.
Does this mean that the 44 upper division units can come from any major, or do they have to be a STAT course?
Thanks in advance.
