Courses marked with a (*) satisfy divisional studies requirements.
(*) CAS MA 113 Elementary Statistics I
Basic concepts of estimation and tests of hypotheses, ideas from
probability, one-, two-, and multiple-sample problems. Applications
in social sciences. Primarily for students in the social sciences
who require a one-semester introduction to statistics; others should
consider MA 115 or MA 213. 4 cr, either sem.
Note: Students may receive credit for not more than one of the
following courses: MA 113, MA 115, MA 213, or MA 613.
(*) CAS MA 115 Statistics I
Basic concepts of statistical inference: estimation and tests
of hypotheses. Ideas from probability; one-, two-, and multiple-sample
problems. Primarily for students concentrating in biology, economics,
education, government, psychology, and sociology with limited preparation
in mathematics. Students with good high school mathematics preparation
should take MA 213 rather than MA 115. 4 cr, either sem.
Note: Students may receive credit for not more than one of the
following courses: MA 116, MA 214, or MA 614.
(*) CAS MA 116 Statistics II
Prereq: MA 115 or equivalent. Estimation theory; point and interval
estimation. Tests of hypotheses. Type I and Type II errors. Analysis
of variance. Introduction to design of experiments. Regression and
correlation. Enumeration statistics. Discussion of limits of validity
of statistical procedures. 4 cr, 2nd sem.
Note: Students may receive credit for not more than one of the
following courses: MA 113, MA 115, MA 213, or MA 613.
(*) CAS MA 213 Basic Statistics and Probability
Prereq: good background in high school algebra. Elementary treatment
of probability densities, means, variances, correlation, independence,
the binomial distribution, the central limit theorem. Stresses understanding
and theoretical manipulation of statistical concepts. 4 cr, either
sem.
Note: Students may receive credit for not more than one of the
following courses: MA 116, MA 214, or MA 614.
(*) CAS MA 214 Applied Statistics
Prereq: MA 213 or consent of instructor. Inference about proportions,
goodness of fit, student's t-distribution, tests for normality;
two-sample comparisons, regression and correlation, tests for linearity
and outliers, residual analysis, contingency tables, analysis of
variance. 4 cr, either sem.
CAS MA 38l Elementary Probability
Prereq: MA 225 or MA 230. Combinatorial analysis, discrete and
continuous probability, random walk, treatment of data. 4 cr, either
sem.
CAS MA 416 Intermediate Statistical Methods
Prereq: MA 116 or MA 214 or equivalent. Fundamental concepts in
statistical modeling, analysis of variance, including trend analysis,
repeated measures, and nonparametric techniques. Analysis of covariance,
analysis of count data, robustness. SAS, SPSS, SPSSX, and TELEGRAF
are taught and used throughout the course. 4 cr, 1st sem.
