Mathematical statistics is concerned with designing experiments or sample surveys, and interpreting data from them. It also describes random phenomena, using probability theory. There are many applications, for instance in science, engineering, economics and the social sciences.
A preferred topic combination is MAS2011, MAS2032 and MAS2042. Prerequisites for third-year mathematical statistics subjects are all of MAS2011, MAS2032, MAS2042 and MAT2020. MAT2010 and MAS2021 are also recommended.
