HDip Statistics

This programme is aimed at graduates whose level of statistical or mathematical training is high and have demonstrated numerical ability, but below that of a BSc Degree in Statistics. Students who are awarded a distinction or upper second-class honours in the Higher Diploma in Statistics are qualified to enter the MSc Statistics. On successful completion of the programme, you will reach in one year a level of statistical knowledge equivalent to that of BSc Honours graduates. You will be able to apply basic statistical reasoning, techniques and models in the analysis of real data, understand the context in which statistical work is done, select appropriate statistical models for different applications, interpret results, and demonstrate programming skills, report writing skills and presentation skills.
