The purpose is to enhance the student’s capability of analyzing and interpreting data so as to make managerial decisions. This course crosses two semesters and designed for introduction to statistics and data analysis, including data description, sample distribution, regression, analysis of variance, and nonparametric methods. The participants had better take the course in calculus or linear algebra before. This course will give you three hours of lectures each week and necessary homework which may need the aids of computing and statistical software without difficulty.
