Objectives
This is a traditional statistics course. We start from the first principles of probability theory and finish with the traditional testing of hypotheses.

Prerequisites
The student is expected to have a thorough knowledge of the calculus of one variable. We also expect that the maximalisation techniques in two or more variables are well known and that integration of continuous functions of two or more variables is also a basic skill. These subjects are taught in the courses of mathematics in the first and second year.

Topics
Combination theory
The concept of probability
Conditional probability
Stochastistic variables
Important discrete and continuous distributions
The central limit theory
Confidence intervals and testing of hypothesis
Theory of errors
