The\u00a0goal\u00a0<\/u><\/strong>of this course is to prepare the students to apply quantitative reasoning in work-setting decisions.\u00a0The 501 course takes a hands-on approach by using real-life examples to illustrate the use of quantitative tools from algebra, probability and descriptive statistics in solving concrete problems. This course helps the students to master the quantitative tools used routinely in the quantitative methods courses: UST601, UST602, UST803 and in research.\u00a0This course includes computer sessions where the students will be trained to use the state of the art software MathCAD to solve problems and visualize data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Computer worksheets: disk and printouts due<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TH, 8\/9,\u00a0Exam II<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The course includes eight computer sessions.\u00a0The grading of the computer work is based on the number of projects successfully completed and on the attendance record. You should save each MathCAD worksheet.\u00a0A printout of each worksheet will be collected on Tuesday 8\/7\/2001.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each student needs a calculator.\u00a0No textbook is required.\u00a0There are several books in the library that you may find helpful in learning the material.\u00a0They are located in the Rhodes Tower, on the 4th floor under QA154.\u00a0I will distribute periodically handouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Late homework will not be accepted but in cases of proven reason.\u00a0Exam attendance is obligatory.\u00a0Makeup exam will be given only in cases of proven emergency.\u00a0Attendance of classes is needed for the proper understanding of the material.\u00a0Class attendance requirements are listed in the CSU Bulletin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The final grade in PAD\/PDD\/UST501<\/strong> is a weighted average of:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Homework 20%<\/li>
  • Computer Projects 20%<\/li>
  • Exam I 25%<\/li>
