Full course description
Statistics introduces the student to the main concepts of both probability theory and statistics. With respect to probability theory, students learn how to make use of random variables to extract the probability distribution of an experiment. Additionally, topics such as expectation, standard deviation, and independence will be discussed. The statistics part of the course discusses basic statistical topics such as the central limit theorem, verification of hypotheses, and confidence intervals. After completing this course students will have obtained an overview of commonly seen probability distributions, as well as several statistical procedures. Additionally, the student will be able to deal with problems that involve probabilities and determine an outcome for such problems (e.g., the expected outcome).
