Professional Accreditation

All undergraduate programmes offered by the Department of Statistical Science except for LG13 (Economics and Statistics) and GN32 (Statistics and Management for Business) are accredited by the Royal Statistical Society. Graduates obtaining second-class Honours or above will automatically be granted GradStat status on application to the society, although for the BSc in Statistics, Economics and Finance, the BSc in Statistics, Economics and a Language, the BSc in Mathematics and Statistical Science and the MSci in Statistical Science this requires that students take at least 50% of all their studies in the two final years in Statistics.

Graduates of the Economics and Statistics BSc (Econ) and the Statistics and Management for Business BSc may also qualify on a casewise basis provided they have chosen a sufficient number of statistics units as part of their degree.
