Course Schedule for Engineering Statistics / EQT 271
(Academic Session I, 2015/2016)
Subject Code :
Engineering Statistics / EQT 271
Total Hours :
3 Hours (lecture) x 14 weeks and 1 Hour (tutorial) x 14 weeks
Synopsis :
This course introduces the fundamental concepts in statistics. The definition of statistics and basic concepts of statistics
such as collection of data, data summary and presentation, probability distribution and sampling distribution will be
introduced to the students in topic basic statistics. This course also teaches the students on how to make a statistical
inference which are estimation and hypothesis testing. Apart from that, students will learn on how to run statistical test
and analyze the results obtained. These skills will be taught in topic introductory linear regression (Simple linear
regression, Least squares method, Test for linearity of regression and Pearson product moment correlation coefficient),
analysis of variance (one-way and two-way ANOVA) and nonparametric statistics (Sign test, Mann-Whitney test,
Kruskal Wallis test).
Course
Outcomes :
At the end of this course the student should be able to:
1. understand, apply and explain the basic concepts of statistics.
2. solve problems using suitable statistical inference.
3. construct the model and analyze the result from ANOVA table and simple linear regression
4. apply the basic methodology of nonparametric statistics to solve engineering problems.
