MAT007 - Statisticas and OR for Government Catalogue Entry
This module will introduce the student to the ways in which Statistics and OR is used within Government. It will be predominately taught by staff from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) and Welsh Assembly Government (WAG), and will therefore provide a first-hand fascinating insight in to the roles of Statisticians and Operational Researchers within these organisations. Government is a large employer of graduates in Statistics/OR, and hence this module provides excellent training for students considering a career in Government or for those interesting to know what kinds of methods ONS and WAG utilise in assisting them to produce important analyses and reports.
