The course takes a broad-based approach to statistics, providing up‑to‑date training in major applications and an excellent balance between theory and practice. It covers modern ideas in statistics, including applied Bayesian methods, generalised linear modelling and object‑oriented statistical computing, together with a grounding in traditional statistical theory and methods.


The course is also flexible. By selecting an appropriate combination of optional modules and a suitable research project, students may choose to specialise in areas such as biostatistics, applied stochastic modelling, quantitative decision making, quantitative analysis for industry, or financial mathematics. The biostatistics pathway has been formalised as a distinct named award, the MSc in Medical Statistics and Data Science.
