About the Statistics group

Statistics is one of the two subjects in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Tampere. The Department offers extensive basic courses in Statistics both in the Faculty of Information Sciences and in the Faculty of Social Sciences. The Department has an extensive programme of teaching. Great emphasis is placed on the practical application of statistical methods and on the use of computers. Hence Statistics courses will contain, from the very outset, a practical project calling for active skills in the use of computers. The Department provides training for a range of higher degrees. There are the B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in Statistics (by coursework and dissertation) and the research degrees of Lic.Phil. and Ph.D.

The main research areas within the Statistics group are linear models, multivariate analysis, time series analysis, asymptotic methods in Statistics, computers in statistical training, expert systems and design of experiments.
