Description

The module focusses on methods of multivariate analysis to extract trends and patterns from large datasets, and to examine various relationships within them. It also covers measurement strategies and causal inference in both experimental and observational studies. Students will learn how to employ multivariate analysis as an investigative statistical tool within multidisciplinary contexts, providing a specific analytical skillset sought after in both academia and industry.

The course is intended for students with a more advanced background in research methods, inferential statistics, and data analysis. Students are advised to contact the module convenor in advance if they have any queries related to the level required.Ìý
