The EPSRC CDT in Modern Statistics and Statistical Machine Learning (StatML) is a highly successful doctoral training centre led by Imperial with Oxford as an equal partner. It aims to train the next generation of leaders at the intersection of statistics and computer science, powering the artificial intelligence (AI) revolution. Students undertake fundamental research to develop novel theory and methods and work with industrial and academic partners to apply their research to make real-world breakthroughs in pressing problems in government, medicine, industry and science.
