This is the final course in the mathematics core curriculum. The course develops each cadet's ability to structure their reasoning under conditions of uncertainty and presents fundamental probability and statistical concepts that support the USMA core curriculum. Coverage includes data analysis, probabilistic models, independence, simulation, random variables and their distributions, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, and linear regression. The course also introduces engineering applications of probability and statistics techniques. Applied problems motivate concepts, and technology enhances understanding, problem solving, and communication.
