What is STAT3009 about?

This unit introduces the student to the use of Bayesian statistics in credibility theory and to the applications of loss distributions, including compound distributions, in risk modelling. Copulas are introduced to account for tail dependencies in distributions. Practical, hands-on modelling experience is developed through the use of R and EXCEL (students are assumed to have functional R and EXCEL skills prior to commencement of this unit).
