Course Descriptions

CORE COURSES (6 CREDITS)

This course teaches students how to ethically conduct statistical analysis in a world where data collection and privacy concerns are becoming ubiquitous. This course provides a broad overview of ethical considerations for conducting statistical analysis. Students will gain perspective through analyzing case studies tied to each of the main topics.
This course will teach students how to collaborate and communicate effectively with non-statisticians to answer their subject matter questions and will provide a culminating research experience for master’s students in the online Applied Statistics program. It will discuss how to effectively communicate with non-statisticians using many real-world examples. Students will gain hands-on experience by completing a semester-long project with a written report of the results. The course will emphasize the synthesis of skills taught in all prior courses in the program: technical skills, creative thinking, effective writing, and scientific communication.

ELECTIVE COURSES (24 CREDITS)

This course will teach mathematical development of basic concepts in statistics: estimation, hypothesis testing, sampling from normal and other populations; regression, goodness of fit.
This course will introduce students to fundamental computational tools used in statistics. Topics include how to write computer programs and scientific reports for collaboration, automation, and reproducibility. The course will introduce several tools including SAS programming, relational databases R, SQL, the Linux command line, and scientific communication using LaTeX, Markdown, and similar tools.
Topics covered in this course include estimation, hypothesis testing, analysis of variance, regression and correlation, goodness-of-fit, and other topics as time permits. Emphasis on applications of statistical methods.
This course has two major components: (1) conceptual foundations of database design and theory and (2) practical applications of design and theory to real-world database designs. For the conceptual and theoretical design component, this class covers data definition and type, entity relationship diagram (ERD) and data normalization. The practical application uses emerging database tools to cover industry critical functions.
This course covers the general regression problem of fitting an equation involving a single dependent variable and several independent variables, estimation and tests of regression parameters, residual analysis, selecting the “best” regression equation.
Application of data analytic theories and models to solve real world problems using various unsupervised and supervised models will be covered in this course. Topics include cluster analysis, association rule mining, random forest classifier, neural networks, and naïve Bayesian classifiers.
Course topics are models, probability, Bayes’ Rule and R; inference to a binomial probability; and the generalized linear model.
