Statistics (Research)

Our society revolves around variation, uncertainty and risk. By gaining a greater understanding of these variables through the study of statistics, we’re able to create systems and techniques that benefit areas as diverse as science, law and finance.

Our statistics research group explores a wide range of statistical theory and practice, often applying its findings in collaboration with researchers in related fields, such as:

• informatics

• geosciences

• medicine

• biomathematics

The group leads the interdisciplinary Centre for Statistics that spans across the whole breadth of the university, providing opportunities for collaborations with researchers in many different applied fields.

The School of Mathematics is a vibrant community with researchers in many different, but related, fields - including Data Science.
