Aims

The objective of this course is to familiar students with ideas and methods of point and interval estimates, the most used parametric and nonparametric tests, good fit tests, an analysis of variance, a categorial analysis, linear and nonlinear multiple regression models and time series analysis.
Students will be made familiar with the methods of mathematical statistics, regression analysis, and time series analysis and will learn how to use the respective methods when solving economics problems. After completing this course, students will be able to use statistical tools as a basis for data analysis in the management of individual company activities.
