Course Descriptions

Statistics (3, 0)

• Major topics include: frequency distribution, probability distribution, sampling distribution, estimation and testing, analysis of variance, regression analysis, nonparametric statistical method, and time series analysis.

Management Mathematics (3, 0)

• This class is designed to introduce students to important topics in Linear Algebra such as linear dependence, basic, inner product, and linear transformation. The students will learn only the theorems and proofs related to this first course of abstract mathematics, but also the algorithms used in the numerical computation side of this course. Linear Algebra is also a subject of a wide variety of real-life applications. The students will be trained to apply mathematics to many of these applications.

Operation Research (3, 0)

• Major topics include: Linear Programming, non-linear programming, goal programming, integer programming, and network optimization. Through the learning of model formulation, training of model formulation, training of solution techniques, as well as working on case studies, students are expected to develop these mathematical programming techniques as major tools in managerial decision-making process.
