The Professional Bachelor's degree in Applied Statistics & Econometrics from UNIVGA is a comprehensive 3-year university program (180 ECTS) that trains statistical assistants, econometric study managers, junior data analysts, and collaborators in research offices capable of intervening in national statistical institutes, central banks, ministries, international organizations (AfDB, World Bank, IMF), research offices, and polling institutes.<\/p>\n

Designed to meet the professionalization needs of African statistical institutes, the growing demand for rigorous econometric analyses to support public and private decision-making, and the rise of economic big data, this training is delivered 100% online. It combines the rigor of a university education in applied mathematics with the operationality of a position as a statistical assistant or junior data analyst.<\/p>\n

Market challenges and career opportunities<\/h3>\n

National statistical institutes (DGSEE Gabon, INS Cameroon, ANSD Senegal, INS Ivory Coast), central banks (BCEAO, BEAC), ministries (economy, planning), international organizations, and private research offices are recruiting trained statistician-econometrician profiles. Proficiency in R, Python, and econometric techniques is highly sought after, including for donor reports.<\/p>\n

Curriculum pedagogical structure<\/h3>\n

Year 1 \u2014 Mathematical and economic fundamentals.<\/strong> General mathematics (analysis, linear algebra), descriptive statistics, probability calculations, general economics (microeconomics, macroeconomics), national accounting, scientific methodology, scientific English, basic computing, and advanced office automation (Excel).<\/p>\n

Year 2 \u2014 Inferential Statistics and Econometrics.<\/strong> Inferential statistics (estimation, hypothesis testing), linear econometrics (general linear model, OLS, assumptions, heteroscedasticity, autocorrelation, multicollinearity), qualitative variables and dichotomous models (probit, logit), introduction to R and first statistical programs, survey theory and sampling plans, demography and social indicators.<\/p>\n

Year 3 \u2014 Specialization in Advanced Econometrics and Data.<\/strong> Time series (stationarity, ARIMA, VAR, ARCH\/GARCH, cointegration), panel data (fixed effects, random effects, dynamic GMM equations), econometrics of public policies (difference-in-differences, RDD, IV, matching), Python for data (pandas, scikit-learn), economic big data and nowcasting, machine learning applied to economics (random forest, boosting), ethics of statistics and data quality. The program concludes with a supervised professional thesis, defended orally via videoconference before an academic jury.<\/p>\n

Career opportunities<\/h3>\n

Statistical assistant in a national statistical institute, econometric study manager in a central bank or ministry, junior data analyst in banking, telecommunications, or insurance, collaborator in a research office and polling institute, research assistant in a university or research center, junior consultant in impact evaluation. Continuation in Master's in Statistics, Master's in Econometrics, Master's in Data Science, or ENSAE.<\/p>\n
