Applied Statistics
Big data is about more than just gathering information — it’s how we analyse and apply it that matters.
Our postgraduate applied statistics programs will provide you with the skills you’ll need to be able to analyse data and apply it across a variety of fields, including forensic science, sports science, psychology and health. When you study subjects such as data mining and epidemiology, you’ll gain the knowledge and skills to be able to ask the right questions, and find the right answers.
Businesses and organisations don’t need more information — they need people who can analyse and apply it.
