MSc Statistics and Operational Research
Our MSc Statistics and Operational Research will appeal if your first degree included mathematics as its major subject, and we expect you to have prior knowledge of statistics – for example significance testing or basic statistical distributions – and operational research such as linear programming.
You specialise in areas including:
- Continuous and discrete optimisation
- Time series econometrics
- Heuristic computation
- Experimental design
- Machine learning
- Linear models
Our interdisciplinary research recognises that mathematics, including what can be very abstract mathematics, is an essential part of research in many other disciplines.
Our Department of Mathematical Sciences has an international reputation in many areas including semi-group theory, optimisation, probability, applied statistics, bioinformatics and mathematical biology, and is ranked top 25 in the UK for Mathematics (TGUG 2018).
