The aim of the course:
Enable post graduate students whom never take statistics and having insufficient statistical knowledge on experiment design, data collection and evaluation
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : describe population-sample, parameter-statistic concepts,1,4,5,7,8,9,10,11,121
PO - 2 : design experiments and surveys, execise methods to reduce experimentel bias,3,5,6,10,14,151
PO - 3 : collect, summarise and present data,3,5,6,10,14,151
PO - 4 : use descriptive statistical methods,3,5,6,10,14,151
PO - 5 : understand normal, binomial and poisson distributions and test distributions, and use in their field of profession,3,5,6,10,14,151
PO - 6 : develop their skills to construct hypothesis and control by Z, X2 (Chi-square) tests and variance analysis.3,5,6,10,14,151
