MA Statistics
The MA in Statistics will bring students to the same level as the 1-year MSc degree in Statistics. Currently, students without sufficient statistical background knowledge can attain master’s level proficiency by first completing the Higher Diploma in Statistics followed by the MSc in Statistics, which takes two years. The MA in Statistics provides an alternative pathway in 16 months and there is no comparable programme in Ireland or the UK. The MA Statistics is an EMOS (European Master in Official Statistics) labelled programme, which means that some students may choose to take modules and a project on official statistics, and potentially receive the EMOS certification of their degree.
