Honours and Post Graduate Quantitative Stats Group

When you did your undergraduate stats subjects, I bet all the data analysis worked out just fine, but in the real world this does not happen. Therefore we have started a quantitative stats group that meets each month to discuss approaches to analysis and to work through real world data. Each month a student presents some of their data for analysis and we all analyse and discuss it with the aid of UC statisticians.

This group will give you new insight into better ways to analyse various data sets. So, if you want to learn more stats in a friendly environment, just turn up at the next meeting or contact Joelle Vandermensbrugghe for more information (Joelle.Vandermensbrugghe).
