10. Course Goals (acquired competencies): The main purpose of this course is to provide students with an introduction to statistical data analysis. In addition to developing competencies in the topics, the course aims to further develop problem-solving skills using statistical terms and software packages and to provide a basis for applying the knowledge gained in previous mathematics courses. Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to effectively visualize and understand the data with the help of graphs, pie charts and histograms. The student will also be able to determine and interpret confidence intervals for specific problems of interest and conduct a variety of hypothesis testing. The student will be able to use statistical packages in the problem solving process and interpret the results of the analysis of the collected data |

20. Forms of assessment | During the semester, two partial written exams (at most 90 minutes each) are provided, at the middle and at the end of the semester, tests that are conducted during the classes and a project assignment. The student should prepare a project assignment and submit it by the end of the semester. For students who have passed the partial exams and tests, a final oral exam may be conducted (maximum duration 60 min). The scores from the partial exams, tests, project assignment and the final oral exam are included in the final grade. A written exam (maximum duration 135 min) is taken in the scheduled exam sessions. For students who have passed the written exam, a final oral exam can be conducted. The scores from the written exam and the final oral exam are included in the final grade. |
