Introduction
Statistics (4 Years)
In the past few years, the University of Ljubljana has organized an interdisciplinary postgraduate Program in the field of statistics. As a result of this Program, the overall expertise in statistics has increased significantly, thus enabling the university to prepare a new doctoral Program based on experience of the noticeable advantages of an interdisciplinary approach. In spite of its great versatility, the Program defines two common compulsory courses in modern statistical approaches for students of all orientations, one modular compulsory course and several elective courses offering students the chance to specialize in their respective fields of interest. The interdisciplinary doctoral Program in Statistics is unique in Slovenia in offering possibilities for advanced education for all future experts in the general application of statistics needed in research institutions, public administration, and management. The main goal of the interdisciplinary doctoral Program in Statistics is to further educate experts who have some fundamental knowledge in statistical theory, some experience in the field or some general statistical knowledge that is specific to an individual scientific field. The Program was organized and is carried out by experts from different faculties. The Program is coordinated at the university level by the Program Board.
