Hear what our alumni say…

The MStat program offers comprehensive training on modern statistical techniques and mathematical methods in finance. Courses always discuss topics from a strong mathematical ground, which is beneficial to learning the course materials and transferrable when exploring other statistics & math domains during self-studies. The assignments and exams are so well designed that even part-time students would be challenged enough to grasp the topic yet not feel overwhelmed. Now, I feel well equipped with the knowledge to perform at work and conduct any further self-study if required. The training translates well into my day-to-day work of model construction and statistical analysis, improving my productivity and capabilities of building intuitions behind the math.
CHAN Wing Kin [MStat Part-time Graduate 2024]

I work in PwC GI actuarial team. Our team uses Python and SQL to assist general insurers in navigating regulatory and financial challenges, which is a new thing in Hong Kong market. The MStat programme offers valuable Python trainings and risk analysis techniques that directly enhance my professional capability, which enables me to work as both actuary and programmer. Additionally, I make serval friends in HKU, some of them have subsequently become members of our team, either as full-time staff or interns. Thanks for the opportunity provided by this programme, I have a chance to go back to campus after working for three years. I will always treasure the moments when studying at the library, taking exams in the Main Building, and hiking the Peak from the canteen.

LIU Wen [MStat Full-time Graduate 2023]
Actuarial Analyst, Ernst and Young
MStat program offers a wide variety of statistical course for students to choose, from conventional statistical inference and modelling to more heated topics such as data mining and blockchain analysis. The data mining and big data analytics courses I took were not only inspirational from the theoretical perspective, but also helpful by offering hands-on experience useful for my everyday work as an actuary. With the adoption of new accounting standards in the industry, revamp of existing data structure and models is essential. The techniques and mindset of big data analytics learnt from the program can certainly be put to good use. The program serves as a great opportunity for students to develop the necessary skills under the big data era.

I think the MStat program is an excellent opportunity for students to realize their goals. The MStat program provides a variety of selective courses, which combine the academic knowledge and practical applications very well, so students can gain plenty of advanced statistical theories as well as understand the applications of these knowledge in real life. During my one year study, I really enjoyed the academic atmosphere here, all professors are willing to help me with my academic research. So I decide to become a PhD student here. Thanks to the MStat program, it improved my academic performance and I finally received the PhD offer of statistics in HKU.
LIU Ruihan [MStat Full-time Graduate 2022]
PhD in statistics, The University of Hong Kong
I am now working as a consultant under Financial Risk Management (FRM) department at KPMG. I think the programme has been a very challenging and rewarding learning experience for me. The courses structures are designed rigorous and also fitted for students who have various backgrounds and career goals. The courses which are more practical such as Programming for Data Science, Financial Data Analytics etc. are useful for industry practice and I found the knowledge and skills learned from those courses are useful for my job. And for those more theoretical courses they may be useful for students who want to pursue a PhD degree in the future. I believe that students with different career goals would learn what they want to learn in this programme. Moreover, although almost half of time of the courses were transited to online mode due to COVID, the instructors were very responsible and knowledgeable and responded to my questions promptly as well as clearly. To sum up, the MStat programme has provided me the opportunity to fulfil my career aspirations and dreams. I am very thankful for the relationships I built and the people I met at the Department of Statistics & Actuarial Science in HKU.

The MSTAT program is an eye opener. I learnt the application of Statistics in areas not limited to Finance, but also interesting fields including geography, computer science and social economics.
