| |Course Description: |The course introduces students to the discipline of Statistics as a science | |
| | |of understanding and analyzing data. The main focus is made on applied | |
| | |statistics which includes descriptive statistics and inferential statistics.| |
| | | | |
| |Learning objectives: |Recognize the importance of data collection and determine how they affect | |
| | |the scope of inference. | |
| | |Use statistical packages in R-Studio to summarize data numerically and | |
| | |visually, and to perform data analysis. | |
| | |Have a conceptual understanding of the unified nature of statistical | |
| | |inference. | |
| | |Apply estimation and testing methods (confidence intervals and hypothesis | |
| | |tests) to analyze single variables and the relationship between two | |
| | |variables in order to understand natural phenomena and make data-based | |
| | |decisions. | |
| | |Model and investigate relationships between two or more variables within a | |
| | |regression framework. | |
| | |Complete practical assignments that employ simple statistical inference and | |
| | |modelling techniques. | |
