Statistical Methods for Research is designed to provide graduate students with a strong foundation in statistics, covering key areas such as confidence intervals, hypothesis testing and statistical modeling.

The program provides the vast majority of Master's level students with the statistics they will need to complete their research reports, and provides doctoral students with the statistics they need to understand and evaluate the statistical test models they will use in their research.

Taking a cross-disciplinary approach and compatible with all major statistics packages, this program will be rich with scenarios, practical applications and interactive statistical models and will be supported by optional peer-to-peer online forums and interaction.

The course is based on the design of a highly successful course from the University of Reading, UK, that has recorded an average improvement of 122% in students' performances.

Professional Skills for Research Leaders is designed to help independent researchers enhance their leadership, management and engagement strategies to increase their competitiveness and effectiveness.

Completing the program will help faculty and established researchers to improve their grant writing skills, increase their research impact, ensure robust collaborations, lead productive research teams and projects, communicate across a range of media and extend their reach and influence.  

It encourages the development of transferable skills and can assist universities in meeting funder compliance requirements. The program may also support high-talent doctoral candidates nearing completion of their candidature and post doctorates.
