This course provides an introduction to the probability & statistical theory underlying the estimation of parameters & testing of statistical hypotheses, including those in the context of simple & multiple regression Applications are drawn from economics, business, & other fields. No prior knowledge of statistics is required. Highly Recommended: Prior experience with calculus I; Co-requisite: Concurrent enrollment in a lab section of STAT 2120.

This course introduces topics in time series analysis as they relate to financial data. Topics include properties of financial data, moving average and ARMA models, exponential smoothing, ARCH and GARCH models, volatility models, case studies in linear time series, high frequency financial data, and value at risk. Prerequisite: A prior course in probability, a prior course in regression, and a prior course in programming.

This course provides a platform for exploring advanced statistical modeling and analysis techniques through the lens of state-of-the-art sports analytics. Prerequisite: A prior course in mathematical statistics, a prior course in regression, and a prior course in programming.

This course provides a survey of regression analysis techniques, covering topics from simple regression, multiple regression, logistic regression, and analysis of variance. The primary focus is on model development and applications. Prerequisite: A prior course in statistics.

Introduces philosophy and methods of exploratory (vs confirmatory) data analysis: QQ plots; letter values; re-expression; median polish; robust regression/anova; smoothers; fitting discrete, skewed, long-tailed distributions; diagnostic plots; standardization. Emphasis on real data, computation (R), reports, presentations.Prerequisite: A previous statistics course; previous exposure to calculus and linear algebra recommended.

This course introduces methods to approach uncertainty and variation inherent in elementary statistical techniques from multiple angles. Simulation techniques such as the bootstrap will also be used. Conceptual discussion in lectures is supplemented with hands-on practice in applied data-analysis tasks using R. Prerequisite: A prior course in statistics and a prior course in programming.

This course includes a basic treatment of probability, and covers inference for one and two populations, including both hypothesis testing and confidence intervals. Analysis of variance and linear regression are also covered. Applications are drawn from biology and medicine. No prior knowledge of statistics is required. Co-requisite: Concurrent enrollment in a lab section of STAT 2020.

This course provides an introduction to various topics in data science using the Python programming language. The course will start with the basics of Python, and apply them to data cleaning, merging, transformation, and analytic methods drawn from data science analysis and statistics, with an emphasis on applications. No prior knowledge of statistics, data science, or programming is required.

This course provides a calculus-based introduction to mathematical statistics with some applications. Topics include: sampling theory, point estimation, interval estimation, testing hypotheses, linear regression, correlation, analysis of variance, and categorical data. Prerequisite: A prior course in probability.

This course studies introductory statistics and probability, visual methods for summarizing quantitative information, basic experimental design and sampling methods, ethics and experimentation, causation, and interpretation of statistical analyzes. Applications use data drawn from various current sources, including journals and news. No prior knowledge of statistics is required. Students will not receive credit for both STAT 1100 and STAT 1120.
