Post Graduate Workshops in Statistics

Statistics, data collection and analysis, predictive analytics; whatever you want to call it, if you are using statistics in your research, then you may well want to take advantage of a series of statistics workshops  run by the University of York's Maths Skills Centre. The workshops are running from April- June 2016 for all postgraduate students.   


The 4 workshops being offered (all on Wednesday afternoons - see website for dates & more details) are:

An Introduction to SPSS
Descriptive Statistics and Exploratory Analysis
Using Graphs and Measures of Association
Confidence Intervals & Hypothesis Testing

Feedback suggests that these workshops have been useful complements to courses available in departments and they have become very popular. There are limited places available so if you are interested we recommend that you sign up to the workshops as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. More details and an on-line course sign up are available at:



HYMS postgraduates who are based at Hull are more than welcome to sign up for these workshops if they are able to make it York, if not, don’t forget that there are similar workshops available from the skills development programme at Hull
