Master of Statistics

About the Course

The Master of Statistics is a 2-year master’s graduate program that teaches you how science and technology come together to make useful products from living organisms. In simple terms, biotechnology is all about using biology (the study of life) and technology to solve problems and improve products we use every day.

In this course, you will learn how living things, like plants, animals, and microbes, can be used to create valuable products like medicines, food, and energy. The program covers different areas like how technology can help in making medicines, improving crops, and solving health problems.
