In our information-led society data is a crucial commodity. Statisticians specialize in methods for collecting data by sampling methods and in statistical modeling and analysis, with a view to drawing meaningful conclusions from data. They also allow for the effects of uncertainty and ''noise'' that is often present in real data sets. Accordingly, trained statisticians are in substantial demand in diverse fields such as medicine and pharmaceuticals, environmental sciences, service industries, manufacturing, insurance, the financial industry, government, and market research.
