Textbook: Introduction to Statistics and Data Analysis, Roxy Peck; Chris Olsen; Jay L. DeVore, Cengage learning, 5th edition.
Credit Hours: Three.
Prerequisite: Math 1054
Instructor: Dr. Jiantian Wang
Office: GLAB 318 Email: [email protected] Phone: 908-737-4726
Office Hours: M: 2:00-3:00PM, T: 11:00- 1:00PM, W: 2:00-3:00PM, TH, 11:00- 12:00PM.
Course Objectives:
A. To introduce some basic methods and concepts in statistics
B. To understand principles of statistical estimation and hypothesis testing procedures, nonparametric tests, Analysis of variance, and regression analysis techniques.
C. To Solve applied problems in statistics using statistical software (Excel or R)
D. Demonstrate how probability and mathematical statistics can be used to analyze problems in the natural, physical, and social and business sciences.
E. Interpret computer output of the results of statistical analysis.
Grading: Will be based on three exams (including final) and homework assignments. The two term exams each will count for 25% and the final exam 30%. Homework assignments and others will count for the remaining 20% of your course grade.
Grade Scale: 100-93 A, 92-89 A-, 88-85 B+, 84-82 B, 81-79 B-, 78-76 C+, 75-70 C, 69-50 D, < 50 F.
Homework : Homework sheets will be provided to you periodically . Once a section has been covered in class, it is then your responsibility to do the homework for this section. Homework must be your own, though you may discuss with others. No late homework will be accepted.
Exams: Most exam problems will be at a similar difficulty level as that of homework problems and those problems discussed in class. Exams are open-book and open-notes. Partial credit may be given on problems in which you show by your written work that you partially solved the problem. Unexcused absences will result in a grade of 0. Make-up exam may be arranged in the case of an excused absence within one week of exam time. The final exam will be cumulative.
Academic honesty and Integrity: The instructor supports and enforces the University Academic Integrity Policy. The policy covers, cheating, fabrication, facilitating, academic dishonesty, plagiarism and related areas. If I become aware of violations of this policy, appropriate steps have to be taken. Penalties range from the assignment of a grade of zero for the activity to dismissal from the University. Each case is handled on an individual basis.
