Goal(s)

The aim of statistics is to provide useful information from random data. This course presents the basic principles of statistical data analysis (description, estimation, tests), and the most usual statistical methods. The focus of the course is application more than theory. The concepts introduced are illustrated with R.

Responsible(s)

Test

FIRST SESSION :
Kind of evaluation: after both parts of this course, the students have to upload on Chamilio a portfolio explaining how the learning outcomes of this course have been reached, and/or the encountered difficulties.

SECOND SESSION
An oral to defend the portfolio (which has possibly been improved during the meantime)

N1 : max((E2,(E1+E2)/2)
N2 : E3
