Look beneath the software to understand how statistical methods work. This English-taught master’s gives attention to both building methods and applying them to data.
Methods and applications
The structure combines 39 compulsory credits, 15 elective credits and a six-credit thesis. Methodological and applied pathways offer different emphases, including advanced inference, data reporting and high-performance computing.
Preparing for the course
A bachelor’s degree is required. Mathematics, statistics, physics and several engineering backgrounds receive preference; other applicants must demonstrate mathematics, statistics and programming foundations. Check the official English-language requirements.
Exploring the next step
The programme can support interests in analytical work or further statistical research. Compare its emphasis on mathematical understanding with more application-led data-science courses.
