    Course Description This is an introductory statistics course designed for students with
    limited statistics and mathematics background. It enables students
    understand basic statistical analysis.

    Course Objectives This course will enable the students to:


    1. Organise, analyse, interpret, summarise the data in a useful and
    informative manner.
    2. Calculate measures of central tendency and dispersion.

    3. Calculate and interpret regression and correlation tests

    4. Estimate the population mean.

    Learning Outcomes By the end of this course, the student will be able to:
    1. Use simple graphical techniques to perform preliminary analysis of
    data.
    2. Use counting rules to solve permutation and combination problems
    associated with probability.
    3. Interpret results of measures of central tendency and dispersion.

    4. Apply and interpret binomial and normal distributions.

    5. Test hypothesis on the mean of a normal population.


    Teaching and The class will meet for three hours each week. Class time will be used
    Learning for a combination of lectures, Tutorials, Practical, Group sessions
