Course Overview

The Applied Multivariate Analysis certificate course offered by swayam is a certification course for learning the applied multivariate statistical methods and progress in the field of statistics. This certification is a perfect place to learn Multivariate Statistics and its applications in the practical world. 

This course will introduce an important and useful class of statistics. This course is structured in a way to cater to two main objectives, first is to extend the Univariate statistical methods to multiple variables. And the other is to create techniques that are applicable to multiple variables studies only. 

The Applied Multivariate Analysis Certificate Programme is a combination of theory and the practical applications of applied multivariate analysis. This course will help postgraduate students studying statistics as their major and other candidates from different disciplines who want to study these complex statistical methods for use in various analyses. 

The course is designed to create a curiosity in learners and engage them in the applications concerning the use of multiple dependent variables in carrying out any analysis. The course is suitable for candidates who have basic knowledge of mathematics and statistics. It will benefit candidates who wish to pursue a career in this field and want to upskill themselves for the industry.
