MSc Statistics

King's College London, University of London

The Statistics MSc enables graduates and professionals with a strong mathematical background to research, develop and apply modern statistical modelling techniques to a range of practical settings. The programme will prepare students to critically think about real world data analysis problems arising in the public or private sector, for example in the financial, pharmaceutical or manufacturing sectors. The Statistics MSc is aimed to develop a deep knowledge and understanding of statistics and its mathematical foundations, and to enable students to think logically and objectively about data analysis and statistical learning. Students will have the opportunity to learn how to apply the most appropriate statistical models to answer practical questions, using modern statistical methods and software. The students will therefore learn a wide range of transferrable skills, both in data analysis and in how to present and communicate the results. This will particularly apply to the individual research project.
