Understand how to analyze statistical data and how statistics is utilized and used in the field of civil engineering. Learn
and understand computational examples utilizing linear algebra vectors and matrices in the field of civil engineering.
Students will learn the fundamentals of probability statistics and linear algebra in this course.
During the first half of the lecture, students will focus on the basics of probability statistics. In the field of civil engineering, various aspects of planning, design, construction, and maintenance rely on experimental and statistical data. To analyze this data objectively and rationally, a solid understanding of probability statistics is essential.
In the second half of the course, students will delve into basic linear algebra. Many fields, such as surveying and structural design, involve computerized mass calculations, which rely on the principles of vectors and matrices in linear algebra.
