311156 v.1 Chemistry and Applied Statistics Major (Bachelor of Science)
Introduction
A contemporary chemical laboratory entails the measurement of vast amounts of experimental data using modern and sophisticated instrumentation. In this context, there is a branch of statistics allied to chemistry known as Chemometrics, which deals with issues such as experimental design, experimental optimisation, data mining, sample surveying and operational research. The double major in Chemistry and Applied Statistics will prepare students for a range of employment opportunities requiring a detailedknowledge and understanding of statistics as it applies to the chemical sciences. Graduates may be employed as Analytical Chemists in the Government and Private sectors.
