OVERVIEW
Course Description Statistics provides us with a quantitative framework to utilise data
for describing, summarising, and modelling the world around us.
Engineering statistics combines engineering and statistics using
scientific methods for analysing data. This course introduces
students to the fundamental concepts of probability, random
variables and their distributions, and shows how these ideas
provide the theoretical foundation for data analysis through
statistical modelling, estimation and hypothesis testing with a
major emphasis on applications in electrical engineering and
computer systems. On completion of this course students will be
able to apply statistical theory to make informed decisions and
predictions relevant to engineering.
