-
3.00 Credits
Semester course; 1-3 lecture hours. 1-3 credits. A study of selected topics in statistics. Specific topics may fulfill general education requirements. See the Schedule of Classes for specific topics and prerequisites.
-
3.00 Credits
Semester course; 3 lecture hours. 3 credits. Prerequisite: MATH 201. Completion of MATH 211 or MATH 300 (or equivalent knowledge) is strongly recommended. A study of the mathematical theory of probability, including finite and infinite sample spaces, random variables, discrete and continuous distributions, mathematical expectation, functions of random variables and sampling distributions.
-
3.00 Credits
Semester course; 3 lecture hours. 3 credits. Prerequisites: MATH 361 and 362. Restricted to students majoring in the liberal studies concentration for early and elementary education. Understanding probability, describing data both graphically and numerically, regression/correlation, common distributions and interpretation, item analysis for tests, interpreting test scores and educational studies, experimental design and limitations, comparing results using t-tests and ANOVA. This course relies heavily on Excel as a data-analysis tool and requires one structured interaction at the elementary school level. Students may receive credit toward graduation for only one of STAT 208, 210, 212 or 312.
-
4.00 Credits
Semester course; 4 lecture hours. 4 credits. Prerequisite: STAT 210 or 212. A study of the concepts and application of statistical methods including: estimation and hypothesis testing for two sample problems; one factor analysis of variance and multiple comparisons; randomized block designs and analysis; inferences on categorical data, including chisquare test for independence for contingency tables; simple linear regression and correlation; multiple linear regression. Special topics include distribution free (nonparametric) methods in various statistical problems, two factor analysis of variance, and the use of a statistical software package for data analysis.
-
3.00 Credits
Semester course; 3 lecture hours. 3 credits. Prerequisites: STAT 212 and MATH 200 or their equivalents. The application of computers to statistical practice using SAS, R or similar statistical software. Topics include data storage and retrieval, data modification and file handling, statistical and graphical data analysis, and simulation.
-
3.00 Credits
Semester course; 1-3 lecture hours. 1-3 credits. A study of selected topics in statistics. See the Schedule of Classes for specific topics to be offered each semester and prerequisites.
-
3.00 Credits
Semester course; 3 lecture hours. 3 credits. Prerequisites: Both STAT 212 and STAT/MATH 309, or permission of instructor. Framework for statistical inference. Point and interval estimation of population parameters. Hypothesis testing concepts, power functions, Neyman-Pearson lemma and likelihood ratio tests. Elementary decision theory concepts.
-
3.00 Credits
Semester course; 3 lecture hours. 3 credits. Prerequisites: STAT 212 and CMSC 245 or CMSC 255, and MATH 310, or their equivalents. Examination of the interface of statistics, computer science and numerical analysis. The course explores the fundamental problems of doing arithmetic with digital computers: rounding, truncation, errors and error propagation, stability and accuracy of algorithms. It then proceeds to examine extensions to the computation of probabilities, percentage points of probability distributions, random number generation, Monte Carlo methods and numerical methods in linear algebra. This course will require programming in higher level language.
-
3.00 Credits
Semester course; 3 lecture hours. 3 credits. Prerequisites: ENGL 200 and STAT 314 or OPER 327, or permission of the instructor. Designed to help students attain proficiency in professional and academic communication in the context of statistics and operations research. Focus on the disciplinespecific communication skills necessary to excel in careers or graduate studies in these disciplines.
-
4.00 Credits
Semester course; variable hours. 2, 3 or 4 credits per semester. Maximum 4 credits per semester; maximum total of 6 credits. Generally open to students of only junior or senior standing who have acquired at least 12 credits in the departmental discipline. Determination of the amount of credit and permission of instructor and department chair must be procured prior to registration of the course. The student must submit a proposal for investigating some area or problem not contained in the regular curriculum. The results of the student's study will be presented in a report.
