MATH 76
Special Projects in Probability and Statistics
Course Description
In this course students will engage in an independent or collaborative project in probability and statistics under the close supervision of a faculty member, focusing on a fundamental problem within their discipline. This course emphasizes the development of research skills. Students will identify or formulate a research question based on their understanding of the discipline, apply skills and techniques learned in their coursework to conduct their research project, and produce a professional capstone product, such as a report or portfolio, that reflects their systematic and in-depth inquiry. The capstone product will be developed in close collaboration with the faculty member and must be approved by the faculty member and/or the department. Students will also demonstrate in writing how their work contributes to the discovery and interpretation of knowledge significant to their field of study, present their findings in a properly formatted, professionally rigorous document or other appropriate capstone product, and formally present their capstone product to faculty and/or peers during an approved date and time.
