The Department of Statistical Science is the longest established university statistics department in the world.  It was founded in 1911 by Karl Pearson and has played a pioneering role in the development of the subject.  The Department carries out high-quality teaching at all levels (undergraduate single and combined honours, service courses, postgraduate taught and postgraduate research) and internationally-leading research across a wide range of theoretical and applied areas.  Research in the Department is based on a blend of project-based research groups, multidisciplinary collaborations and individual research programmes.
