Prerequisites: STAT 882
Homework:Approximately 12 homework assignments will be made over the course of the semester. You will always have at least a week to work on each of the assignments. The only way to learn statistics is to practice working problems, and homework is therefore an essential part of the course. Late homework should be avoided in all but the most dire emergencies.
Exams:Exams are closed book and notes. You are expected to take exams at the scheduled times. If this is impossible due to extreme circumstances (illness, death in the family, previously scheduled activities vital to academic program), please notify me. No make-up exams will be given if I am not notified prior to the examination. You will be required to obtain a note from your physician or advisor explaining the nature of the conflict.
Final Exam: Friday, May 9 from 10:00-Noon
