ENVS 10 Introduction to Environmental Statistics

This course is designed to introduce students to the basic statistical methods necessary to conduct and understand statistical analyses of environmental issues and problems. Methods and subjects include: measurement, descriptive statistics, graphs, basic probability, correlation and regression, and basic inferential statistics (hypothesis testing, confidence interval construction, effect size calculation). There is a strong emphasis on the application of these and other techniques to socio-environmental datasets that describe current environmental problems and issues. No previous experience with mathematics or particular software is required. Students will be required to complete a final project in which they use statistical techniques to address an environmental research question.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
