Module overview

The module is designed for postgraduate students whose first degree is in Mathematics or another discipline where development of mathematical skills is a significant component (Science, Engineering, Economics, Quantitative Social Sciences). While the material covered is similar in technical level to that which might be found in an undergraduate mathematics curriculum, the quantity of material is much larger, and the pace of delivery correspondingly much faster. Hence the module requires students to have developed study skills to graduate level.

The module is comprised of three submodules, in probability and distribution theory, statistical inference and statistical modelling, as described in the syllabus below.
