Statistical Mathematics
This course is meant for students who do not have sufficient background of Mathematics. The students would be exposed to elementary mathematics that would prepare them to study their main courses that involve knowledge of Mathematics. The students would be exposed to the basic mathematical tools of real analysis, calculus, differential equations and numerical analysis.
Students will be able to:
