Devore, Jay L., Probability and Statistics for Engineering and the
Sciences, Fifth Edition, 2000.
Course Description: This course is designed for students majoring in engineering. Topics
include: data analysis, probability, random variables, discrete and continuous probability
distributions, estimation, hypothesis testing, correlation, linear regression, and statistical process
control.
Course Objectives:
1. To acquaint the students with the fundamental concepts of probability and statistics.
2. To develop an understanding of the role of statistics in engineering.
3. To provide an understanding of the processes by which real-life statistical problems
are analyzed.
4. To familiarize students with computer-based statistical analysis through the SPSS
software package.

Homework:
Homework problems will be assigned each week and are due in lecture the following week.
Points will be deducted for homework turned in late and homework not turned in will receive a
score of "zero". All work (computer and manual) should be shown for each problem so that
partial credit may be given. Homework may be done in groups of up to three people. If you
choose to work in a group please submit one homework solution paper(s) with the names of all
group members on that one solution.
Quizzes:
Quizzes will be given each week during the recitation. If you miss a quiz, you will be given a
score of 0. The lowest quiz grade will be dropped.
Exams:
Three exams are scheduled throughout the course. If you must miss an exam, please make
alternative arrangements with the instructor before the exam is given. Make-up exams will only
be given for absences due to unavoidable situations
Cheating of any form on quizzes or exams will result in a grade of 0 for that quiz or exam!
