The course is designed for undergraduate engineering students with an emphasis on problem-solving related to societal issues that engineers are called upon to solve. It introduces different methods of data collection and the suitability of using a particular method for a given situation. It includes a discussion of the relationship of probability to statistics, providing the students with the tools they need to understand how probability plays a role in statistical analysis. Probability distributions of random variables and their uses are also considered. The course also includes estimation techniques for unknown parameters, and hypothesis testing used in making inferences from the sample to population, inference for future values of key variables under study. Finally, experimental design techniques and analysis of outcomes of experiments are discussed with the aid of statistical software.
