DEGREE PROGRAMMES

: Statistics (English)

General Description

History

Established within the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, the Department of Statistics started postgraduate education in the 1994-1995 academic year. Under the Department of Statistics, Master's degree in Statistics , Master's degree in Statistics Scientific Preparation, Master's Degree in Data Science (with and without Thesis), Doctorate degree in Statistics programs are carried out. The graduate program of the Department of Statistics is 100% in English. The aim of the program is to combine statistical theory and programming knowledge and skills for people who aim to pursue a career in fields such as Statistics, Data Science, Data Analytics, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, and to provide the necessary pre-knowledge in these fields and to prepare the infrastructure for doctoral programs. The compulsory and elective courses of the program cover the theory and applications of Statistics, as well as an intensive computer programming content. Basically, it is aimed that students gain the skills of accessing information, and improve their ability to evaluate and interpret the information they have obtained.
