Statistics and statistical methods play a major role in the work environment in areas such as business, science, finance, economics, engineering to mention just a few. The [course_title] gives an introduction to descriptive statistics and basic probability theory for discrete and continuous probability models. Introductory theory for estimation and for statistical hypothesis testing in the most common situations is presented. Emphasis is made on both theoretical understanding and applications.
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.
