Probability & Statistics for Engineers I
This course is a required course for undergraduate students of Industrial and Systems Engineering at Morgan State University in Baltimore, Maryland. The Fall 2021 class meets on Tuesdays from 9:00 to 10:50 AM and Thursdays from 9:00 to 9:50 AM in Schaeffer Engineering Building, Room 202.
This course will equip the student with statistical tools that can be used for data analysis. It will also prepare students
for graduate studies in engineering, business, science, or mathematics. On completion of this course, the student will be able to:
1. Describe data graphically, understand variability and relative standing (percentiles).
2. Communicate the concept of probability and the laws associated with it.
3. Understand the concept of random variables, their distributions, and applications to solve engineering problems.
4. Gain fundamental knowledge required in courses such as design of experiments, quality and reliability.
Additionally, a great emphasis is placed on implementing the knowledge learned to the real world problems through examples, assignments and student research.
