Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

COURSE COMPLETION

The course-unit credit is awarded on the following conditions (max. 40 points):
- preparation of semester assignments (the topic of the assignments will be specified during the semester).

The exam (max. 60 points)
- has a written form with the possibility of using computer technology and consists of four computational examples and a theoretical question.

The grade, which corresponds to the total sum of points achieved (max 100 points), consists of:
- points achieved in semester assignments (max. 40 points),
- points achieved by solving examples (max. 51 points),
- points achieved by answering theoretical questions (max. 9 points).

The grade and corresponding points:
A (100-90), B (89-80), C (79-70), D (69-60), E (59-50), F (49-0).

Attendance at lectures is not mandatory but is recommended. Attendance at exercises is required and checked by the tutor. An excused absence of a student from seminars can be compensated for by submitting solution of alternate exercises.

Aims

The objective of the course is to learn students with basic principles of mathematical statistics, econometric models, categorical analysis, statistical process control methods and their use in management of company processes.
Students will acquire the knowledge which allows them to use statistical methods at such a theoretical and practical level which allow them to process and perform correct data evaluation and develop the awareness and abilities of students to use statistical methods to manage of company processes.
