STAT 02286Probability and Statistics for Electrical and Computer Engineering

Catalog

This is a Junior level course covering concepts in probability and statistics useful to those studying electrical and computer engineering. Assuming knowledge of descriptive statistics and basic probability from earlier courses, topics will include more advanced probability, continuous and discrete random variables, sampling distributions, interval estimation, and hypothesis testing for one and two parameters. Also explored will be topics in linear regression, analysis of variance, chi-square tests, and an introduction to distribution free tests. Emphasis will be placed on problems with applications to engineering. While this course is directed at students pursuing a major in Electrical and Computer Engineering, it is open to other Engineering majors.
