Who should attend?
If you want to gain an understanding of
statistical methods and how they can be applied
in an engineering or scientific context, then this course is
for you. It is also suitable for engineers and scientists who
are already familiar with the basic ideas of
statistics but looking to consolidate and
enhance their knowledge.
Why attend?
As practitioners rather than purely trainers or
academics, we offer a unique perspective on how
statistical analysis is applied in practice. Statistical analysis is widely used and provides
useful insights into engineering and scientific problems and
their solutions. This course removes the mystique
that surrounds statistical analysis by
explaining the underlying rationale; it also
explains the techniques that are most useful in
practice. Emphasis is given throughout the
course to understanding the techniques and
defining the situations in which they are most
usefully applied.
By the end of the course you
will have a good general understanding of statistical
methods and have greater confidence and
proficiency in using statistical software
packages. Full practical illustrations are given
using the Statistics functions within Microsoft
Excel.
