MATHEMATICS:
PROBABILITY AND STATISTICS


The first doctoral dissertation in the scientific field of Probability and Statistics, defended at the Faculty of Mathematics, wasOn the Strong Law of Large Numbersby Časlav Stanojević in 1955. From then until the end of 2023, a total of 44 dissertations in this field were defended. The complete list of defended dissertations can be found at the bottom of the page.

 

PhD studies

A detailed plan and program of doctoral studies is available on this page. In order for a student to obtain the title of Doctor of Mathematical Sciences from the scientific field of probability and statistics, it is necessary that the majority of the selected courses belong to this field. The courses Mathematical Statistics and Theory of Random Processes are mandatory, and the others are chosen in agreement with the advisor of doctoral studies. The consent of the Department is required for the choice of courses for each school year. To fulfill the requirements for "Preparation of the doctoral dissertation 1,2,3,4", it is necessary to present some scientific work, not necessarily authored, at the Department's Seminar. In addition to this, the requirement can be considered fulfilled if the student presented his/her results at a domestic or international conference, or published it in a peer-reviewed scientific journal. One of the four Preparations must be fulfilled by presenting on the Department's Seminar.
