creditsAverage Course Rating
This course gives a peek into the research area of regression and inference, which is engineer-speak for “connecting dots with a line in a principled way.” Alternating between theory and practice, students will explore both foundational and modern techniques for finding patterns in data. Through hands-on coding activities and classroom discussions, students will experience for themselves the deep intersection between real world data, mathematical statistics, and computing, pushing them to seek out even more new and interesting knowledge during their remaining semesters at JHU. The course will emphasize key paradigms that appear often in applied mathematics, allowing students to apply their knowledge beyond medical applications and to areas such as economics, biology, and computer science.
