Probabilistic Models in Industrial Engineering

Catalog description

The study and application of probability theory in the solution of engineering problems. I E 322 Probabilistic Models in Industrial Engineering (3)Probabilistic Models in Industrial Engineering is a first level junior course required for all the baccalaureate students in the Department of Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering. It exposes students to the probability theory and models and discrete and continuous probability distributions which are necessary for solving real life engineering problems with uncertainty. Reliability modeling, one such problem of interest to the manufacturers and consumers, will be taught in this course. The course will also cover sampling distributions and point and interval estimation of mean, variance and proportion. Students taking this course should be familiar with elementary algebra, and differential and integral calculus.
