Statistics is a compulsory course aimed at introducing the basic techniques for the analysis of statistical data. Topics taught include displaying and describing data, basic probability theory and statistical inference. Attention will be focused on applications to business and economics.

The course normally includes classroom lectures. There are 2 hours of weekly exercises for the duration of the course. In the event of an extension of the health emergency from COVID-19, all the provisions that regulate the methods of carrying out the teaching activities and student assessment will be implemented. In particular, the following methods will apply: remote mode, through the distribution of handouts, exercise collections, live and deferred audio recordings.Type of evaluation
The exam consists of a written test, with exercises and theoretical questions. The test is considered passed if the sufficiency is achieved both in the practical and theoretical part. It is not allowed to introduce any formulary and/or book in the exam room. It is allowed to introduce only the tables of probability distributions in the format made available on the course website. A candidate who has successfully passed the written test can request that the mark obtained in the written test be recorded, unless the oral test is requested by the teacher. In the event of an extension of the health emergency from COVID-19, all the provisions that regulate the methods of carrying out the teaching activities and student assessment will be implemented. In particular, the following procedures will apply: the exam will take place in oral form at distance. teacher profile teaching materials
