The School of Mathematics and Statistics is one of the largest in the UK. In the 2021 Research Excellence Framework (REF) the school was ranked 5th in Mathematical Sciences, the highest ranking of any university in Scotland. Our research interests cover a wide range of topics, with our AI3 initiative, of analytics and inference innovation for impact, aiming to create a world-class environment for research and teaching that transforms the practice of Statistics, Data Analytics and Data Science.

With regular seminars and events, we have a lively and mutually supportive research environment, which has led to the award of coveted prizes and competitive fellowships for several of our junior staff and postgraduate research students.
