Past Courses

• AMCS5999 - Independent Study

  Independent Study allows students to pursue academic interests not available in regularly offered courses. Students must consult with their academic advisor to formulate a project directly related to the student’s research interests. All independent study courses are subject to the approval of the AMCS Graduate Group Chair.

• AMCS9999 - Ind Study & Research

  Study under the direction of a faculty member.

• CIS9990 - Master's Thesis

  For students working on an advanced research program leading to the completion of master's thesis requirements.

• CIS9999 - Independent Study Research

  For Computer and Information Science doctoral students studying a specific advanced subject area. Students should discuss with the faculty supervisor the scope of the independent study/research and know the expectations and work involved.

• GCB7990 - Independent Study

  Independent study course

• MATH4990 - Supervised Study

  Study under the direction of a faculty member. Intended for a limited number ofmathematics majors.

• STAT4310 - Statistical Inference

  Graphical displays; one- and two-sample confidence intervals; one- and two-sample hypothesis tests; one- and two-way ANOVA; simple and multiple linear least-squares regression; nonlinear regression; variable selection; logistic regression; categorical data analysis; goodness-of-fit tests. A methodology course. This course does not have business applications but has significant overlap with STAT 1010 and 1020. This course may be taken concurrently with the prerequisite with instructor permission.

• STAT9710 - Intro To Linear Stat Mod

  Theory of the Gaussian Linear Model, with applications to illustrate and complement the theory. Distribution theory of standard tests and estimates in multiple regression and ANOVA models. Model selection and its consequences. Random effects, Bayes, empirical Bayes and minimax estimation for such models. Generalized (Log-linear) models for specific non-Gaussian settings.

• STAT9910 - Sem in Adv Appl of Stat

  This seminar will be taken by doctoral candidates after the completion of most of their coursework. Topics vary from year to year and are chosen from advance probability, statistical inference, robust methods, and decision theory with principal emphasis on applications.
