Biometry/Biometrics

These programs focus on applying statistics and other computational methods to the study of problems in the biological sciences and related fields in agriculture and natural resources. They include courses in computational biology, mathematical statistics, matrix algebra, applied calculus, experimental design, linear modelling, sampling theory, stochastic processes, spatial and temporal analysis, longitudinal analysis, sparse/unbalanced data and complex error, and applications to such topics as population genetics, animal breeding, forest genetics, population dynamics, wildlife biometry, ecology, and agricultural and natural resource management.
