Course Objectives

At the end of the course, the students will

1. understand and use descriptive statistics

2. be able understand and use inferential statistics

3. be able to construct and analyze models of empirical relationships between variables.


Course Content

Descriptive statistics, statistical estimation, hypothesis testing, simple and multiple linear regression, introductory experimental design with emphasis on industrial engineering applications.


Course Learning Outcomes

Student, who passed the course satisfactorily will be able to:

1. construct graphical representations of data, interpret the graphs using MİNİTAB

2. compute the numerical values of the sample statistics and interpret them

3. find confidence intervals of the unknown parameters of the distributions from observed samples

4. test the statistical hypothesis about the unknown parameters of the distributions from an observed sample, compute related error probabilities

5. construct/estimate a linear model (regression/ design of experiments) with single and multiple independent variables, perform the significance tests

6. perform residual analysis, model transformation when necessary
