This course is designed to help you learn the tools needed to
carry out the statistical regression analysis in a variety of
applications. Regression analysis consists of a collection of techniques
used to explore and understand the relationship among variables.
The emphasis is on graphical exploration, model building,
estimation, inference, diagnostics and model checking.
Grading Policy
Your course grade is a weighted average of the following
performance scores: homework (30%),
