The master program in Computational Statistics and Applications provides skills related to the collection, manipulationand (computational) analysis of data, which are increasingly important for the success of any organization in the current, increasingly competitive, global market. It is also a global training program due to the diversity of the applied statistical methodologies, but also due to the acquired transversal skills such as computing, critical analysis and presentation of results. It promotes lifelong learning through the widespread application of methodologies that encourage autonomous study, namely through the implementation of applied projects. It also promotes research, dissemination and transfer of knowledge and regional and national development through the realization of projects, dissertations and internships. The master program provides skills that allow integration into the labor market, as well as the specialization of professionals that are already integrated in the labor market, thus increasingthe region’s business dynamics.
