This PhD sits within the Statistics Group at King’s, a growing area of research in the Department in response to the increasing importance of data in our world.

We have a wide range of research opportunities, from Design of experiments, Functional Analysis, and Computational Methods to Time Series Analysis, Bayesian and Nonparametric Methods.
