Bachelor of Mathematics (Honours) majoring in Statistics

Harness data and drive decision making. Statisticians are key in helping us make wise, well-informed decisions. Skilled in collecting, organising and making sense of complex data, their expertise is vital to many industries – including healthcare, education, finance, insurance, marketing and more. Whether they’re assessing clinical data to determine the effectiveness of new medicines, modelling environmental data to guide land or water management policies, or analysing athlete performance to inform coaching strategies – statisticians are crucial in facilitating data-driven decision making. Develop a skillset that’s transferable, in high-demand and necessary to all industry sectors. Discover how to transform raw data into actionable insights in our Bachelor of Mathematics (Honours). This degree provides you with the same breadth and depth of learning as the foundation bachelor degree, but with the additional opportunity to advance directly into a research-focused honours year. The Statistics major enables you to gain critical skills in statistical modelling and apply these across a range of disciplines and situations. Apply logical thinking, problem solving and creativity to deliver results. Develop your analytical and communication skills to inform and analyse datasets and explore the use of statistics in areas like public health, environmental science, space and finance. You’ll also have multiple opportunities throughout your studies to sharpen your technical and professional skills – whether that’s developing maths-driven solutions for real business problems in our Maths Clinic, completing a capstone industry project or industry placement.
