The Bachelor of Statistics is a specialist three-year full-time (or part-time equivalent) program comprising 144 units.  An Honours year is also available for suitably qualified students.

Statistics is concerned with the study of quantitative data analysis, including estimation, prediction and hyposthesis testing. It has applications in many fields including the physical, biological and social sciences as well as business, finance, engineering and information technology.  Students who complete the Bachelor of Statistics are eligible for GStat status from the Statistical Society of Australia, Inc.

The degree offers a rigorous program of training in the theory and applications of statistics. The program involves a core in mainstream statistical application and theory, supplemented by studies in specialist streams. Students may choose to specialise in any of a number of areas including Business Statistics, Econometrics, Financial Statistics, Mathematical Statistics and Psychological or Social Research Methods. Some studies from other areas of the University may be included in the program.

Admission Requirements

Admission to all programs is on a competitive basis, taking into account all relevant academic qualifications. If you hold more than one qualification, admission will be based on your overall record. Tertiary qualifications are generally weighted more heavily than secondary. If you have completed an approved tertiary preparation course or alternative entry scheme, you will be assessed on the results of that scheme alone, unless you have undertaken subsequent study.
