Study programmes

The School of Mathematics offers two MSc programmes in Statistics: Statistics and Operational Research, and Statistics with Data Science.

The MSc Statistics and OR provides a core focus on the natural combination of analytical skills; while the MSc Statistics with Data Science provides a strong foundation in the basic discipline of statistics with additional breadth in mathematical sciences and computing.

In addition to the academic content there is also an emphasis on the interpersonal and communication skills which are key for a future career in industry and further studies and research.

Both MSc programmes are pending accreditation by The Royal Statistical Society.
