Statistics H240 - Intro To Statistics (colloq)

The non-honors version of the course covers basics of probability, random variables, binomial and normal distributions, central limit theorem, hypothesis testing, and simple linear regression. Through additional assigned readings and weekly discussions, the 1-credit honors colloquium will prepare students to conduct basic statistical studies by expanding on the material covered in Linear Regression and introducing the basics of ANOVA and analysis of categorical data, using the statistical package Minitab. Students will choose and complete a statistical project and will be graded on the final written product and presentation.
