As for my program, yes to statistics and multiple courses with options for specialization. I opted for the environmental sciences with a focus on urban ecology and park management. No to calculus or linear algebra, but I’ll call that out as an irrelevant curveball question. Your doctor or lawyer don’t need it, nor would they benefit from it and they are far more respectable than a planner. I highly respect those who pursue calculus or linear algebra but I don’t think their “worth” should be determined by planning knowledge.
