Title ENGINEERING DATA ANALYSIS
This course introduces different methods of data collection and the
suitability of using a particular method for a given situation. It includes a coverage and discussion of the relationship of probability to statistics, probability distributions of random variables and their uses, linear functions of random variables within the context of their application to data analysis and inference, estimation techniques for Description unknown parameters, and hypothesis testing used in making inferences from sample to population, inference for regression parameters and build models for estimating means and predicting future values of key variables under study. Statistically based experimental design techniques and analysis of outcomes of experiments are discussed with the aid of statistical software. Course Code MATHT13 Credit Units 2 units Prerequisites After completing this course, the students must be able to: Course Apply statistical methods in the analysis of data.
