The Department of Mathematical Sciences at Bath is one of the most
successful UK Mathematics Departments. The Statistics group obtained a
Grade 5 in each of the 1992, 1996 and 2001 Research Assessment Exercises.
The Department also recently obtained a maximum score of 24 in the Subject
Review of Mathematics teaching.
Research in Statistics covers Bayesian inference, medical statistics,
environmental statistics, epidemiology, computational statistics and
simulation-based inference. Current research in Probability at Bath is
centered around various aspects of Brownian motion and the links with
intersection exponents, branching processes and financial mathematics plus
geometric and discrete probability and random media.
The Statistics Group currently comprises the following academic staff:
Prof C Jennison, Prof MD Penrose, Dr C Chatfield, Dr DG Hobson, Dr A
Robinson (Head of Statistics), Dr SC Harris, Dr MA Hurn, Dr P Lewis, Dr P
