Bring your own device (Any standard smartphone or tablet or laptop) to participate
20 Equipment & Aids effectively in classroom activities. You are not allowed to borrow from others inside the
classroom during class activities.
This course helps to design data collection plans, analyze data appropriately and interpret and
21 Course Rationale draw conclusions from those analyses. It also equips students with consequently requisite
quantitative skills that they can employ and build on in flexible ways.
Frequency distribution. Mean, median, mode and other measures of central tendency.
Standard deviation and other measures of dispersion. Moments, skewness and kurtosis,
correlation and regression analysis.
22 Course Description
Elementary probability theory. Mathematical Expectation, discontinuous probability
distribution, e.g., binomial, Poisson and negative binomial. Continuous probability
distributions, e.g., normal, exponential, and Gamma. Interval estimation, Hypothesis testing.
The course is designed to provide the background of the following topics
1. Define statistical data and focus on how to use them.
2. Analyze experimental and collected data using statistical method.
23 Course Objectives 3. Explain description, interpretation and exploratory analysis of data by graphical and
other means.
4. Discuss the fundamental probability theory and understand statistical reasoning and
inferential methods.
5. Illustrate stochastic behavior of natural phenomena.
After the end of this course, the students will be able to:
1. Analyze data using measures of central tendency, measures of dispersion, point
estimation, interval estimation and hypothesis testing.
24 Learning Outcomes 2. Compute probability of dependent and independent events.
3. Develop probabilistic models for discrete and continuous random variables.
4. Demonstrate relation between multiple random variables.
5. Assess confidence intervals, decisions on hypothesis testing.

1. Class Attendance and Participation:
Class attendance is mandatory (at 80% of classes) to qualify for grading as per
university policy. But I will grade you on the basis of your in-time presence. So after
taking attendance of the class (usually at the beginning of the class), there will be no
provision for recording attendance. Your in-time presence will also be considered as
positive class participation.
2. Examination:
Additional Course There is NO provision for the make-up of missed classes and quizzes. Expect a quiz on
29 the completion of each topic.

3. Assignment
Failure to submit the Assignments on the due date will result in a 50% deduction from
the possible score.
4. Counseling:
You are expected to follow the counseling time-table as set out in this course.
