Course Objectives: The objective of this course is to enable the use of probability theory to analyze data for decision- making and for the solution of problems in engineering, and computer research work. The students will be able to evaluate the probabilities associated with outcomes obeyed by mathematical principles.
Course Outcomes: After completion of this course students should be able to:
1. Use wide range of statistical tools in engineering, economics, accountancy, finance, and other social sciences to analyze the different type data. 2. determine whether a relationship exists between two or more variables 3. Apply knowledge to predict the future behavior of the variable.
