Field of Study:
$39,811 /Yr
The BSc (Hons) in Statistics is a four-year course run by the School of Mathematics and Statistics. The School also offers an MA in Statistics; the statistics element within both the BSc and MA degree programmes is exactly the same.
During the first year, their studies will focus on mathematics, with the aim of reinforcing thteir basic skills before embarking upon the study of statistics in their second year. the second year will focus on a central core of material within statistics which will provide the foundation for advanced study at Honours level.
Alongside Statistics, in the first year of the studies they will be required to study up to two additional subjects. In the second year, they may choose to study Statistics only, or can carry on at least one of these additional subjects, sometimes two.
During third and fourth year, students may select modules from a range of options on advanced and specialist-specific topics. Specialist subject areas may include:
- Bayesian inference
- spatial statistics
- statistical modelling
- times series analysis.
Final-year students must also complete a project on a topic chosen in consultation with teaching staff at the School of Mathematics and Statistics.
The University of St Andrews operates on a flexible modular degree system by which degrees are obtained through the accumulation of credits.

Career and Placement after Course
Demand for mathematically trained graduates vastly outstrips the supply, and hence career prospects are excellent in a variety of fields.
Recruiters seek numerate graduates who are literate, think logically, write and present well, and can work with relevant technology – St Andrews degrees develop all of these skills.
A mathematics degree is recognised as a substantial achievement in a demanding discipline.
Around 30% of St Andrews graduates continue on to postgraduate study, either in mathematics or related disciplines such as computer science, finance, or physics.
The majority of the remaining graduates gain employment in areas such as:
- technology firms or computer consultancies
