About the course: the course is an introduction to statistical reasoning, and includes a review of the necessary elements of probability theory. Applications in various branches of engineering will be stressed. Understanding of each of the topics relies on the material preceding it: it is important to master each topic as soon as it is covered. Click here for a tentative week by week syllabus.
We will ask you to work on homeworks in groups of 2-4 students each.
See Group work rules for a few
comments and rules about group work on the homeworks. Note that
discussion and interpretation of your results is the most important
part of homework problems (especially data analysis
problems). MINITAB output (with brief comments) is not
considered a complete homework and will not receive full credit.
Clearly indicate on top of the first page of each homework assignment:
