The course provides instruction in elementary statistical inference procedures, uses MS excel or R-suite software, and provides an introduction to our Data Science program. Each course meets on two days each week and a student teaching assistant may be provided. A Master’s degree in Mathematics, Statistics, or a related field is required. Demonstrated excellence in teaching is strongly preferred.
