The [course_title] course introduces you to the stochastic process through numerical simulations. In probability theory, a stochastic process is a time sequence representing the evolution of some system represented by a variable whose change is subject to a random variation.
Throughout the course, you will learn the basic theories of stochastic processes that will be followed by the lessons to develop python codes to perform numerical simulations of small particles diffusing in a fluid. Then, you will learn to analyse the simulation data based on the above theories.
Upon completion, you will be able to analyse the dynamical data of more complicated systems.
Assessment
This course does not involve any written exams. Students need to answer 5 assignment questions to complete the course, the answers will be in the form of written work in pdf or word. Students can write the answers in their own time. Each answer needs to be 200 words (1 Page). Once the answers are submitted, the tutor will check and assess the work.
Certification
Edukite courses are free to study. To successfully complete a course you must submit all the assignment of the course as part of the assessment. Upon successful completion of a course, you can choose to make your achievement formal by obtaining your Certificate at a cost of £49.
Having an Official Edukite Certification is a great way to celebrate and share your success. You can:
