Notes

【Course Objectives】

Statistics is the science of learning from data, and of measuring, controlling, and communicating uncertainty. (Davidian, M. and Louis, T. A., Science, 06 Apr 2012).
This course introduces basic concepts in probability and statistics as a tool for empirical analysis in the issues of economics, business, and public management to master programs’ students. The goal of this course is to enhance the students’ quantitative analytical skills in writing term papers and master’s dissertations.

【Course Contents】

This course provides the full scope of the fundamental topics within statistics and covers descriptive statistics, basic probability theory, sampling distributions, confidence interval estimation, hypothesis testing, and regression analysis.
This course consists of lecture-based sessions and the computer workshop of Stata, a widely used statistical package in the subject of economics, political science, business and marketing, and other social science.
