HSTATS-451 Introductory Statistics

Prerequisites: none. This course introduces the student to the foundations of statistical concepts. Topics include organizing data, measures of central tendency, probability, sampling, and statistical hypothesis testing. The course is taught conceptually with minimal emphasis on the mathematical derivation of the formulas. Although the course is fully on-line, there are three OPTIONAL consecutive on-site Saturdays from 9:30 to 4:30 (hour lunch) for students who wish to complete the course earlier by this “Intensive” approach or who choose the option of blending online and onsite instruction.
