Overview
This course introduces the fundamental tools of probability and statistics used to organize, summarize, and draw conclusions from data. We begin by describing and visualizing data, then develop the foundations of probability, random variables, and sampling before turning to statistical inference, including confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, and regression. Applications are drawn primarily from economics and the social sciences.
