European Master in Bayesian Statistics and Decision Analysis

Six European universities from five different EU countries are jointly proposing an International Master in Bayesian Statistics and Decision Analysis as a contribution to the development of the European Higher Education Area launched at the 1999 Bologna declaration. These are:

  1. Helsingin Yliopisto (Helsinki, Finland)
  2. Alpen-Adria-Universität (Klagenfurt, Austria)
  3. Universidad Carlos III (Madrid, Spain)
  4. Université Paris-Dauphine, (Paris, France)
  5. Università La Sapienza (Roma, Italy)
  6. Universitat de València (Valencia, Spain)
The proposal prepared by its steering committee, BayesMasterProposal, summarizes the main concepts behind the Bayesian paradigm, describes some of its currently more important areas of application, identifies the professional profiles which would be required for a successful career in these areas, list the subject matters which would have to be mastered to attain those profiles and, as a consequence, proposes a two year, 120 ECTS Master programme designed to provide the required training. Once approved by the relevant authorities of the participating universities, this European Master will be submitted to the Erasmus Mundus programme, in March 2007.
