\n

This programme is designed for those learners who wish to enhance their quantitative skills, and who are interested in embarking on a career in the fields of engineering, managerial science, business analysis, computing technology, financial services, education or research. The programme will provide rigorous training in quantitative analysis for decision making, as well as in computational methods for simulation and prediction.<\/p> \n

Full-time and part-time students can normally complete the programme in 1 year to 2 years.<\/p> \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n
