Recommendations for coursework to supplement the listing above include CSC 176, PHY 203, MAT 161, MAT 242, or MAT 141. (NOTE: Although MAT 141 will probably not count as math credits toward a mathematics/statistics major at most four year institutions, it does provide an introduction to the general application of statistics which is helpful for understanding fundamental concepts in more advanced statistical studies.)
