About this course:

  • Applied statistics involves putting theory into practice - not only summarising and describing data, but extrapolating from it to draw conclusions about the population being studied.
  • This is an applied, practically-orientated course that gives students advanced knowledge of statistical methods and the theory that underpins these methods.
  • With a strong emphasis on relating theory to practice, students  will develop their analytical, logical, numerical and problem-solving, skills that are in such high demand with employers.
  • Students  also learn how to use standard statistical software like R, SPSS and Minitab.
