Course Objectives: | Topics in probability and statistics are introduced through their definitions leading to the development of basic probabilistic and statistical tools. Emphasis is placed on using these tools to solve engineering problems and to make informed decisions. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1) Calculate probability using permutations and combinations 2) Calculate probability of unions and intersects 3) Determine the reliability block diagram of a system of elements 4) Understand the conditional probability an apply on probability problems 5) Calculate probability using probability distribution functions 6) Calculate expectation values 7) Apply hypothesis testing 8) Determine confidence intervals |
The course will cover the following topics: Counting and probability (both theoretical and experimental definitions); Rules of probability (based on set theory); conditional probability; The random variable; probability mass functions and density functions; Expectation values; sampling theory (mean and standard deviation); hypothesis testing; Confidence intervals (for the population mean, population standard deviation). |
