Short courses in statistics at Swinburne

Research and statistical skills for market and social research professionals

Statistical techniques are regularly under review, and the technology available to carry out analyses is continually evolving. As a result, many professionals find the need for further training to keep up to date with the latest developments.

Swinburne University of Technology offers a wide range of full-time and part-time postgraduate units of study and programs in statistics, ideal for market and social research professionals.

Choose from one, two or three day programs held on and off campus, or take individual units of study in our graduate statistics programs, as a short program or single unit of study.

All units of study have an applied focus and most cover basic research and statistical skills ideal for people with very little background in statistics or mathematics.
