FUNDING FOR MSC STATISTICS AT UNIVERSITY OF KENT
The School of Mathematics, Statistics and Actuarial Science at
the University of Kent has EPSRC funding available to support
UK students on our MSc Statistics course for the coming academic year.
The grants will cover the costs of tuition and pay a contribution
towards living expenses. EU students are eligible for tuition
fees only. Students from outside the EU are not eligible. Under
a separate scheme, we also have a small number of £500 bursaries
available without eligibility restrictions.
The MSc in Statistics at Kent is a long-established programme,
accredited by the Royal Statistical Society, which trains
statisticians for posts in industry, government, research and
teaching.
The course covers both the practical application of statistical
methods and the underlying theory and consists of a mixture
of compulsory and optional modules, as well as a substantial
individually-supervised project. Full details are available
at http://www.kent.ac.uk/ims/statistics/courses/MSc-stats.html.
There is a wide choice of project topics, reflecting the diverse
interests of staff. The Statistics Group at Kent was ranked highly
in the 2008 Research Assessment Exercise, with 65% of research
judged to be world leading or internationally excellent. Areas of
particular strength include Bayesian statistics, bioinformatics,
biometry, nonparametric methods and statistical ecology.
