Review of Basic Statistical Concepts
The Prerequisites Checklist page on the Department of Statistics website lists a number of courses that require a foundation of basic statistical concepts as a prerequisite. All of the graduate courses in the Master of Applied Statistics program heavily rely on these concepts and procedures. Therefore, it is imperative — after you study and work through this lesson — that you thoroughly understand all the material presented here. Students that do not possess a firm understanding of these basic concepts will struggle to participate successfully in any of the graduate level courses above STAT 500. Course such as STAT 501 - Regression Methods or STAT 502 - Analysis of Variance and Design of Experiments require and build from this foundation.
