MA/MS in Hagnýt tölfræði

The MAS programme in applied statistics is an interdisciplinary graduate programme of 90 units. It is designed to meet the needs of working life for people who are skilled in data processing. The page describes it as shorter than a traditional master's degree and says that it can be completed in a little over one year. Compulsory courses include probability and statistics, the final project, statistical consulting, and applied data analysis, the last two taught in spring. Autumn offers a large list of electives, among them financial mathematics, computational intelligence, time series analysis, epidemiology, clinical prediction models, R programming, random effects models, artificial intelligence, stochastic processes, a seminar in statistics, applied Bayesian statistics, databases, and an introduction to deep neural networks. Several of the electives are not taught every term, so the options available vary.
