This course offers thorough professional training which prepares students to embark on statistical careers in a variety of areas. They have also provided a very good foundation for further study at PhD level.
Our MSc Statistics allows students to follow one of two different pathways, depending on their interests and career aspirations – the MSc Statistics and the MSc Financial Statistics. Each is built around five core modules, with students being given the option to study an additional set of three specialist modules.
The normal entry requirements are at least a good upper second class honours degree from a UK University, or the equivalent from an overseas University, in Mathematics or in a subject with significant mathematical content. Students should also have a sound background of basic probability and statistics in their degree, at least up to the second year level of a Mathematics degree in the UK. Specialist knowledge of finance for the Financial Statistics pathway is not required. We would encourage you to look through our MSc Statistics Expected Background before applying.
