STAT

Most statistical analysis and modeling techniques involve assumptions about the independence of the data. However, many real life data occur in the form of time series where observations are dependent. In this course, we will concentrate on both univariate and multivariate time series analysis and model building strategies with time dependent data. Available software will be used to complete the data analysis projects with a balance between theory and applications.

Prerequisites:
MATH/STAT 455/555 and MATH/STAT 450/550, with "C" (2.0) or better, or consent.

Matrix theory, multivariate normal distribution of quadratic forms, estimation and hypothesis testing in the general linear model, and applications of linear models.

Prerequisites:

Statistical tools used to analyze data in biological and medical research. Topics covered are Statistical Theory, Concepts of Statistical Inference, Regression and Correlation Methods, Analysis of Variance, Survival Analysis and Study Designs. Applications to medical problems.

Prerequisites:

This course will cover the basic concepts of big data with an emphasis on the statistical techniques for analyzing structured and unstructured data. Students will learn concepts, techniques and tools that are necessary for working with the various facets of data science practice, including data collection and integration, exploratory data analysis, predictive modeling, descriptive modeling, data product creation, evaluation, and effective communication. The course has applications across many disciplines such as engineering, computer science, statistics, mathematics, economics and management.
