Aims

The objective of the course is to make students familiar with the fundamental ideas and methods used by these mathematical disciplines which enable students to apply this knowledge when solving problems related to the economic areas where these methods are used.
Students will be made familiar with the methods of mathematical statistics, methods of analysis of multidimensional data files, methods of regression and correlation analysis, methods of analysis of time series analysis and methods of index analysis and will learn how to use the respective methods when solving economic problems. After completion of this course students will be prepared to use these methods in economic courses.
