According to The New York Times, a statistician is the number one career for the 21st century. In Ireland, employers cannot find enough qualified statistical graduates and now is the time to choose to study for a degree with a great future. Wherever data are collected, statistical and data analysis skills are required. Statisticians develop mathematical models for uncertainty and apply them to real data. Statistical models allow us to learn about the underlying processes which give rise to the data. The power of modern computing continues to have a major impact on both the development and applicability of statistical methods in almost every area of social science, science and business. The skills gained from studying Statistics complement many other subjects in the degree programme where quantitative methods form part of the approach to understanding the subject. For example, psychology and social science rely heavily on statistical modelling tools.
