MATH370

This course is designed to enable students to effectively collect data, describe data, and make appropriate inferences from data. Topics may include formulation of statistical questions, study design, random variables and probability distributions, sampling distributions, inference for means, proportions, and differences of means or proportions, multivariate and nonparametric data techniques, transformation of data, chi-squared tests, and analysis of variance. Students are expected to communicate effectively about statistical results and to use a statistical software package for data analysis.
