Quantitative Analysis I

Catalog description

This is the first course of a two-course sequence in statistical methods and will focus on univariate statistical methods. In the first section of this first course, participants will be provided with a thorough review of descriptive and inferential statistics including classical tests of hypotheses such as tests for means and variances, goodness of fit tests, tests of independence, and analysis of variance tests. More modern non-parametric and bootstrap alternatives to classical tests will be introduced. The second section of the course will cover regression models, both linear and logistic.
