Statistics, Economics and a Language

UCL (University College London)

At a time of globalisation of business and finance, the ability to communicate in a foreign language can significantly enhance your career prospects. This BSc combines a thorough training in statistics with modules in economics and the study of a foreign language (Arabic, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin or Spanish). The programme is accredited by the Royal Statistical Society (RSS) enabling you to be granted Graduate Statistician (GradStat) status if you achieve second-class honours or above and choose at least 50% of your year two and three modules in statistics. Teaching is enhanced by the varied research interests of our academic staff from the foundations of the subject to applications of statistics in science, medicine, industry, economics and finance. The department offers a friendly and supportive atmosphere, where small-group teaching and personal attention are available for all students. The UCL Centre for Languages & International Education (CLIE) offers comprehensive facilities, including a DVD library, language laboratory, computer-assisted language learning, satellite television, resource books, journals and newspapers.
