The Statistics Departments of Oxford and Warwick, supported by the EPSRC, will run a new Centre for Doctoral Training in the theory, methods and applications of Statistical Science for 21st Century data-intensive environments and large-scale models.
An exciting training programme is delivered by world-leading researchers in Statistical Methods and Computational Statistics / Statistical Machine Learning from Oxford and Warwick. There are funded opportunities for students to work with our leading industrial partners and to travel to an international summer placement in some of the strongest Statistics groups in the USA, Europe and Asia. Applications are currently being accepted for the first intake of students who will start in October 2014. The deadline is approaching: http://www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/postgraduate_courses/course_guide/statistical_science.html http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/statistics/oxwasp and enquiries can be sent to oxw...@warwick.ac.uk and *oxw...@stats.ox.ac.uk*<oxw...@stats.ox.ac.uk> . Students will have, or be expected to obtain, a First Class Honours degree or Master’s degree in a subject that contains strong Mathematics training and have had significant exposure to Statistics or machine learning. Students must be motivated to do research in Statistics for high dimensional data analysis or for high dimensional modelling and become a future leader in statistical methodology and computational statistics.
