| Business Statistics is an introduction to con- cepts, methods and models employed in reasoning with numbers and in presenting cogent statistical arguments or solutions. The course introduces students to the organization, analysis and infer- ence-making processes, using sample data to graphically and numerically describe samples. The course details how to estimate confidence intervals, test hypotheses and develop projections for inferential purposes in a variety of contexts and disciplines such as business, social science, biology, economics, and health science. Many different probability distributions are covered: poisson, binomial, normal, student-t, chi-sq, F-distribution and others. Estimating simple and multiple regressions and making inference from such analysis is another major theme of this course. Using spreadsheet-based software (such as MS Excel) to compute statistics in large-data applications. CSU, UC (credit limits may apply to UC-see counselor) | ||
