Organisation and examination
Teaching in the first semester, review in January
Schedule
Units courses prerequisite and corequisite
Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
- Link between probability and statistics
- Data generation and exploration
- Parametric estimation and confidence intervals
- Hypothesis testing
- Association methods
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
The student will understand the fundamental principles of statistics, and he will be able to apply them to carry out exploratory data analyses, population parameter estimation, and hypothesis testing. He will also understand the nature of regression and variance analysis problems, as well as the interest of non-parametric methods.
This course contributes to the learning outcomes I.1, I.2, II.1, III.1, III.2, IV.1, V.2, VI.1, VII.2 of the BSc in engineering.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
Calculus, algebra, geometry and probability. Elements of computer science and applied mathematics.
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The course is composed of about 12 hours of theoretical lectures, 10 hours of classroom exercises, and 25 hours of assistance to the realization of practical projects with the computer.
Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)
Face-to-face course
Recommended or required readings
The course notes, slides, and exercise notes will be available on the course's webpage at the beginning of the semester: https://people.montefiore.uliege.be/sacre/MATH0487/.
Assessment methods and criteria
Exam(s) in session
Any session
- In-person
written exam ( open-ended questions )
Written work / report
Additional information:
The assessment is composed of two grades: a grade for the practical project (approximately 15% of the final grade) and a grade for the written exam covering theory and exercises (approximately 85% of the final grade).
The projects and the written exam are mandatory. An absence for one of these parts will result in an absence for the course.
