# Minor in statistics
The minor in statistics is an undergraduate minor degree which is exclusively
designed for Single Honours Mathematics students. In order to complete this minor,
students must take 20 ECTS credits of compulsory statistics modules during their
Senior Fresh year along with 20 (or more) ECTS credits of optional statistics
modules during each of their sophister years. This gives a total of 60 (or more)
ECTS credits in Statistics. A precise list of the available modules is given below.
Unless indicated otherwise, each module is worth 5 ECTS credits.
The School of Computer Science and Statistics prepared a short
[information video](https://youtu.be/vl9O16dxFLw) about the minor which is
posted on Youtube. For further details, please contact the programme coordinator, Prof.
[Athanasios Georgiadis](https://people.tcd.ie/Profile?Username=georgiaa).

All modules are optional during the sophister years. Students take
20 (or more) ECTS credits in Statistics during each of their sophister years. The
STU33/STU44 modules are offered every year, while the STU34 modules are offered
every other year (and only half of them are available at any given year).
