Course summary

This course is designed to prepare you for roles in the big data economy. There has never been more demand for statisticians who can find the patterns in large datasets, draw conclusions from it and create solutions. You’ll cover the same essential topics as other maths students, but we make sure you get training in a range of statistical techniques. You’ll use the tools and software professional statisticians use.We have a small but focused number of modules in the first year, that cover all the essentials you’ll need for the rest of your degree. You will start to develop programming skills using Python and R, which can be applied to lots of jobs that involve data. You’ll learn to use the typesetting software LaTeX, which mathematicians and statisticians use to present their work.In your second year, you’ll continue to build a powerful toolbox of mathematical techniques. You’ll also learn how to apply your statistics knowledge to increasingly complex problems through statistical modelling and computer simulations. There are optional modules on topics including algebra, mechanics and fluids.Optional placement year, Study abroad
