Start Date between Jan 24 - July 25

The module provides a general introduction to statistical thinking and data analysis including probability rules and distributions, methods of estimation and hypotheses testing and present the basics of Bayesian inference.

This module introduces the fundamental skills of programming in python. The aim is for students to develop the skills and experience to independently translate a broad range of data science related problems into functioning computer programs and communicate the results.

This module develops the skills necessary to be a successful data scientist that can deliver projects to a professional standard, as would be expected by an employer or client.

This course will introduce students to basic techniques, which can be used to perform a preliminary investigation of data sets. Exploring data involves visualising the variables and relationships to help determine outliers, identify trends, suggest suitable statistical models and inform future data gathering.

In many areas of science and social study, several variables or measurements are taken from each member of a sample, with one variable regarded as an ‘outcome’ and the others regarded as ‘predictors’ of the outcome. This module will examine ways of predicting one particular variable from the remaining measurements using the linear regression model. The general theory of linear regression models will be covered, including variable selection, tests and diagnostics and methods to deal with outliers. While linear regression is a tremendously useful statistical method, it has limitations. Generalised linear models extend linear regression in many ways - allowing us to analyse more complex data sets. In this module we will see how to combine continuous and categorical predictors, analyse binomial response data and model count data.?

Statistical learning is at the core of the modern world. Online advertising, automated vehicles, stock market trading, transport planning all use statistical models to learn from past data and make decisions about the future. Statistical learning is a way to rigorously identify patterns in data and to make quantitative predictions. It is how we translate data into knowledge.
