Overview
Complex statistical problems arise in almost all types of research, and advanced statistical methodologies are widely used.
In practice, statistics is a combination of three different disciplines:
- Probability theory, which is the field of mathematics that describes uncertainty.
- Theoretical statistics, which comprises philosophical considerations about how best to translate between mathematics and reality.
- Practical data processing, which is an area of applied computer science.
You will often also need to acquire significant insights into the field which the study in question deals with.
