International Programme of Statistical Sciencei

This four-year programme provides an advanced education in statistics together with experience of education in a different cultural and/or linguistic setting, which will broaden your horizons and prepare you for a variety of careers that have a special emphasis on international expertise.

In each year of your degree you will take a number of individual modules, normally valued at 0.5 or 1.0 credits, adding up to a total of 4.0 credits for the year. Modules are assessed in the academic year in which they are taken. The balance of compulsory and optional modules varies from programme to programme and year to year. A 1.0 credit is considered equivalent to 15 credits in the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).

In this four-year programme, you will spend the first two years at UCL following either the structure of the Statistics BSc, the Statistics, Economics and Finance (SEF) BSc, the Statistics, Economics and a Language (SEL) BSc or the Mathematics and Statistical Science BSc (the latter choice is only possible if your qualifications meet the entry requirements for the Mathematics and Statistical Science BSc as well as those for the Statistical Science (International Programme)).

The third year is spent at a leading university abroad. Currently, study in Bologna, Munich, Perth, Purdue, Singapore, Toronto and UCLA is available. The fourth year is spent at UCL and consists of advanced modules and project work allowing you to deepen your understanding of the subject.
