The course reviews the mathematical theory surrounding applied statistics at the level of multiple linear regression. This includes calculation rules with the summation notation, standardization of random variables and its use for Normally distributed random variables, and related mathematical issues.
There will be 10 teaching hours in the course.
All courses in the Masters programme will assume that students have fulfilled the admission requirements for the programme. In addition, courses in second, third and/or fourth semester can have specific prerequisites and will assume that students have followed normal study progression.
