Description
A study of descriptive statistics, probability theory, random variables, hypothesis tests, confidence intervals, correlation, simple linear regression, and nonparametric statistics. This is a beginning course in statistics, designed primarily for students admitted to the CF Honors Institute. Students will be required to show a proficiency in interpreting and relating a set of data or circumstances to a definition, equation or mathematical concept. A statistical study project is required. Honors classes that do not have the requisite number of honors students may admit other students on a conditional basis, at the discretion of the instructor. This course fulfills the requirement for a college level mathematics course.
