Overview

Statistics is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Statistics splits the week between lectures and laboratory work, and the final stage is built around a supervised research project.

Tuition ranges from £27,720 to £33,210 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.

Send us your transcript and English result and we will list the departments that would consider you, with the entry condition on each.
