Schedule and instructions of probabilistic modelling studies

Model study plan

The Probabilistic modelling specialisation constructs a bridge between theoretical mathematics and its applications to practical data analysis tasks. Our courses include core theoretical and practical courses in statistics and machine learning. The probabilistic modelling specialisation is especially suitable for research-oriented MSc students who would like to continue for PhD studies in statistics or machine learning as well as for students who are interested in using mathematics in challenging real world data analysis tasks.
