In this course students use descriptive statistics and visual displays to describe data. They learn about some common population and sample distributions. They perform and analyze results of statistical inferences, including confidence intervals, correlation, linear regression, odds/risk ratios, and hypothesis testing (F and T-tests for regression, Chi-square for independence, 2 group and paired sample t-tests). Analyses are performed using MS-Excel. The student is required to select, analyze and interpret real life data for a project.
