STAT 114 - Introduction to BiostatisticsFC NSMA QFR 4 credits A standard introduction to statistics for students with a good background in mathematics. Topics covered include exploratory data analysis, descriptive statistics, probability, sampling, estimation, and statistical inference. Biological and medical examples are emphasized. Statistical software is introduced, but no prior computer experience is assumed. Prerequisites & Notes: STAT 113 and 114 assume no prior knowledge of statistics and cover the same material, though STAT 114 emphasizes biological examples. A self-diagnostic exam (to check your comfort level with algebra and numerical manipulation) is available on the Mathematics Department’s “Resources” website (or contact an instructor). If you scored a 3 or higher on the AP Statistics exam, if you are somewhat comfortable with introductory statistics, or if you have a strong mathematical background (even with no statistics background), you should instead take STAT 205.
