These are the general requirements for this program, for
specific requirements with regard to admission to the program, program
administration, and graduation requirements, students should contact

* 0303-510, 0303-511, and two PE's, can be counted toward both
degrees. Two of the four PE's should be CQAS courses, each taken
for four credits. All other CQAS courses should be taken for three
credits. These PE's should be planned by the beginning of winter
quarter in Year 4 for scheduling purposes. CQAS (0307) courses from
the following list are acceptable as 4-credit courses: 772, 801
(see note****), 802 (see note****), 803, 830, 831, 842, 851, 856,
862, 873, 875, 883, 886. A number of these courses may require 801/802
(or, equivalently, 0303-758) or 841 (or, equivalently, 0303-511).
If a student chooses to take 801, 802 or 842 from this list, then
CQAS electives should be substituted for the 801, 802 or 842 courses
listed in Year 5. Students should sign up for these two courses
for 4 credits. If the course is only offered for 3 credits, the
student should also sign up for a 1-credit independent study (0307-890).
** Electives should be selected with the help of a CQAS advisor.
0307-721 (SPC) may not be taken because of the large overlap with
0303-510.
*** 0307-801 and 0307-802 may be waived if student has had 0303-758,
but the student must then take two CQAS electives, including 0307-803.
A BS degree in Industrial & Systems Engineering and an MS degree
in Applied Statistics will be awarded upon successful completion
of the approved undergraduate program consisting of 196 credit hours
and a graduate program consisting of a minimum of 45 quarter credit
hours. Of these, 16 credit hours would be counted towards both the
BS and MS programs (i.e., 'double-counted'): Four credit hours for
each of 0303-510, 0303-511, and two CQAS-based PE's.
