MATH106G: Statistics I: An Introduction to Statistical Reasoning
Recognizing that data and variability impact our daily decisions, Statistics I: An Introduction to Statistical Reasoning focuses on developing statistical literacy through an investigative process of problem-solving and decision-making. Students participate in the statistical process by formulating questions, analyzing data, and interpreting results, learning to become critical consumers of statistical information. The course introduces students to descriptive and inferential statistics. Topics include statistical distributions, linear regression and correlation, surveys and experiments, sampling distributions, probability, confidence intervals and hypothesis testing. A variety of statistical tools and software are used to explore concepts and deepen students’ conceptual understanding of the topics.

MATH170G: Discrete Mathematics
Discrete mathematics describes processes that consist of a sequence of individual steps and is based on the ideas underlying the science and technology of the computer age. The main themes of this course are: logic and proof: induction and recursion; discrete structures such as number sets, general sets, Boolean algebras, functions, relations, graphs, trees, regular expressions and finite-state automata; combinatorics and discrete probability; algorithms and their analysis; and applications and modeling.
