Course Description
This course offers students an introduction to object-oriented and procedural programming, using Python. Most models and examples are taken from Economics, Management, and Finance. The course discusses topics including primitive types and class types; recursion and functions such as procedures and fruitful functions; basic statements such as assignment, if-statements, loops, blocks, and function calls; objects and classes including subclasses, inheritance, and overriding; sequences and dictionaries; testing and debugging; program development, stepwise refinement (top-down design), and object-oriented design; databases; examples of full featured applications; and programming style considerations. The course consists of lectures, exercises, case studies, and individual and group assignments. The course requires students to have completed an introductory course on programming as a prerequisite.

Course Description

This course introduces a general statistical approach to the design of laboratory and similar experiments. It covers how to analyze the resulting data, including statistical quality control, in order to assure accuracy and precision so that reliable and reproducible conclusions can be drawn concerning the relations being studied. Along with the statistical and methodological content of the course, a number of concrete and frequently used pharmaceutical applications (designed experiments) are presented. Examples include clinical trials (including crossover and repeated measures designs), toxicity testing, bio-equivalence analyses, assay validation, and design and analysis of epidemiological surveys.

Mathematics and Statistics Abroad

Understanding mathematics and statistics equips you with skills that can provide a strong foundation for any profession. Taking your mathematics or statistics studies abroad is an opportunity to work with numbers in a new environment and challenge the way you solve problems. Identify trends and discover relationships in consumer data in a new cultural context. Apply statistical methods to solve specific problems faced by people working in fields like economics, biology, and engineering. Learn about cutting-edge research in applied mathematics from professors and industry leaders in another country.
