Course Desc<x>ription:   
<br>This is one-semester ba<x>sed introduction to probability and statistics for 
<br>undergraduate students in engineering.  The course aims to provide elementary 
<br>topics needed for an understanding of basic statistics and its applications.  
<br>Topics cover probability, random variables, sampling, point estimation, 
<br>statistical intervals, test of statistical hypotheses, and linear regression. 
<br>
<br>Statistics program R will be introduced in class.
