About this programme
The Statistics MA program prepares students for careers that require statistical skills. It focuses on tackling statistical challenges encountered by industry rather than preparing for a PhD. The program is for full-time students and is designed to be completed in two semesters (fall and spring). There is no way to transfer into the PhD program from the MA program. Students must apply to the PhD program.
