STAT 5010W

Statistical Capstone Course I
Credit Hours:
3 hours

Provides an exposure to advanced statistical methods, beyond regression and analysis of variance, and introduces the student to a data-analysis experience related to a real scientific problem. In addition to learning and applying statistical techniques, effective oral and written communication of methods and results are emphasized.

This version of the course will be taught as writing intensive, which means that the course will include substantial and ongoing writing assignments that a) relate clearly to course learning; b) teach the communication values of a discipline—for example, its practices of argument, evidence, credibility, and format; and c) prepare students for further writing in their academic work, in graduate school, and in professional life. The written assignments will result in a significant and diverse body of written work (the equivalent of 6000 words or 25 pages) and the instructor (and/or the teaching assistant assigned to the course) will be closely involved in student writing, providing opportunities for feedback and substantive revision.
