ECON170

Theory, methodology, and applications of statistics to contemporary business and economics problems. Includes descriptive statistics, probability theory, probability distributions, one- and two-population statistical inference, analysis of variance, correlation, and regression. Covers the same topics as BUAD 202, but in more mathematical depth. May use this course as the BUAD 202 pre-requisite for any course in the Business School. Students with a course in high-school level statistics and/or stronger mathematical foundations should consider this course in place of BUAD 202. May not take both Econ 170 and BUAD 202 for credit.
