Overview

Opportunities for Statistics PhD research are available in a wide range of topics in Probability and Statistics. There is a long tradition of Probability and Statistics at Manchester - the chair in Mathematical Statistics is one of the oldest established chairs in the UK.

Scholarships/sponsorships

Together with EPSRC and other national funding sources, the The University of Manchester Department currently provides financial support to some 60 postgraduate students every year (approximately 15 new students per year). EPSRC DTA research studentships are available in all areas for UK and EU students. Students who are normally resident in the EU but not in the UK are eligible for EPSRC PhD studentships, but the awards in such cases currently cover only the course fees, not maintenance stipends.

growth curve models
higher order spectral analysis
