Xiang’s Journey
“During the one-year study…I gained a deeper understanding of statistical thinking, as well as the statistical methodologies and its practical techniques in various fields. The professors' inspiring instructions and the well-designed courses of Lancaster University introduced me to a research culture of critical enquiry and bold exploration, which includes issues around fundamental inquiries and practical problems.”
“The good facilities, the committed professors and the friendly peers of Lancaster University make it a wonderful place for study.”
