Applied Statistics is a master's programme leading to the MAS degree, worth 90 ECTS and organised over one and a half years. A thesis of 30 ECTS forms part of the total, and the remaining credits are taken as coursework.
The MAS qualification does not lead directly into doctoral study, so it is best seen as a professional master's degree. Graduates who want to move in that direction can apply to take additional courses in theoretical statistics, which would allow them to obtain the MS degree in Statistics instead.
Admission requires an undergraduate degree from a recognised university. Applicants whose first language is not English show their proficiency through TOEFL or IELTS results, and they are asked to include a short motivation letter and two letters of recommendation.
