Course develops fundamental methodology to regression and linear-models analysis in general. Topics include model fitting and inference, partial and sequential testing, variable selection, transformations, diagnostics for influential observations, multicollinearity, and regression in nonstandard settings. Conceptual discussion in lectures is supplemented withhands-on practice in applied data-analysis tasks using SAS or R statistical software.Prerequisite: Graduate standing in Statistics, or instructor permission.

This course provides an overview of basic probability and matrix algebra required for statistics. Topics include sample spaces and events, properties of probability, conditional probability, discrete and continuous random variables, expected values, joint distributions, matrix arithmetic, matrix inverses, systems of linear equations, eigenspaces, and covariance and correlation matrices. Prerequisite: A prior course in calculus II.

This course introduces fundamental concepts in the classical theory of statistical inference. Topics include sufficiency and related statistical principles, elementary decision theory, point estimation, hypothesis testing, likelihood-ratio tests, interval estimation, large-sample analysis, and elementary modeling applications. Prerequisite: STAT 6190 and graduate standing in Statistics

This course introduces various topics in experimental design, including simple comparative experiments, single factor analysis of variance, randomized blocks, Latin squares, factorial designs, blocking and confounding, and two-level factorial designs. The statistical software R is used throughout this course. Prerequisite: A prior course in regression.

Course provides an introduction to Bayesian methods with an emphasis on modeling and applications. Topics include the elicitation of prior distributions, deriving posterior and predictive distributions and their moments, Bayesian linear and generalized linear regression, and Bayesian hierarchical models. Conceptual discussion in lectures is supplemented with hands-on practice in applied data-analysis tasks using SAS or R statistical software. Prerequisite: STAT 6120, STAT 6190, and graduate standing in Statistics.

"Topics include importing data from various sources into R/SAS, manipulating and combining datasets, transform variables, "clean" data so that it is ready for further analysis, manipulating character strings, export datasets, and produce basic graphical and tabular summaries of data. More advanced topics will include how to write, de-bug, and tune functions & macros. Approx. equal time will be spent using SAS and R. Prereq: Intro statistics course"

This course provides an introduction to the process of collecting, manipulating, exploring, analyzing, and displaying data using the statistical software R. The collection of elementary statistical analysis techniques introduced will be driven by questions derived from the data. The data used in this course will generally follow a common theme. No prior knowledge of statistics, data science, or programming is required.

This course focuses on applying data analytic techniques to business, including customer analytics, business analytics, and web analytics through mining of social media and other online data. Several projects are incorporated into the course. Prerequisite: A prior course in regression and a prior course in programming.

This course includes an overview of parametric vs. non-parametric methods including one-sample, two-sample, and k-sample methods; pair comparison and block designs; tests for trends and association; multivariate tests; analysis of censored data; bootstrap methods; multi-factor experiments; and smoothing methods. Prerequisite: A prior course in statistics.

This course develops skills related to the practice of statistical consulting. It covers conceptual topics and provides experience with data analysis projects found in or resembling those in statistical practice. Conceptual discussion in lectures is supplemented with hands-on practice in applied data-analysis tasks using SAS or R statistical software.Prerequisite: Graduate standing in Statistics
