Risk Modelling and Survival Analysis (CS2) Course Content

Risk Modelling and Survival Analysis (CS2) builds on CS1. It develops
knowledge of and the ability to apply statistical methods for risk modelling, time
series analysis methods, stochastic processes (especially Markov chains and
Markov jump processes), survival analysis (including regression methods
applied to duration data), and graduation methods It also includes a high-level
introduction to machine learning. The subject includes both theory and
application of the ideas to real data sets using R.

Exam format:

CS2A is 3 hours and 20 minutes exam, CS2B is 1 hour and 50 minutes computer-based exam.
