Applied Statistics MSc

1 Years On Campus Masters Program

Middlesex University London

Program Overview

Statistics, which is often referred to as the science of uncertainty, plays a crucial role in modern society where the collection, analysis and interpretation of data is relied upon by almost all sectors. The demand for well-qualified statisticians, data analysts and statistical consultants is currently exceeding the supply, and this course has been developed to address this shortage.

Applied statistics is focused on practical applications of theoretical concepts, including not only summarizing and describing data but also drawing conclusions about the population being studied based on extrapolation from data. This program is designed to provide you with advanced knowledge of statistical methods and the underlying theory. It emphasizes the practical application of statistical methods and helps you develop analytical, logical, numerical, and problem-solving skills that are highly sought after by employers. You will also learn to use standard statistical software such as R, SPSS, and Minitab.

In this program, you will have the flexibility to choose the type of independent research project you want to pursue. You can select a theoretical dissertation, a survey, or a practical project that involves working with a data set. If you are currently employed, you will have the option of conducting your project in your workplace, making your studies even more applicable and advantageous to both you and your employer.
