“Essential Mathematics for Global Leaders Ⅰ” will begin on April 11. This is a compulsory lecture for students who are in “Minor Course of Science and Technology for Global Leaders”. But all master’s & doctoral students can take it if you have interest. The lecture will be conducted in English.
Lecture Theme & Objective

The theme of this course is to introduce the notions of probability used in statistics, and then main concepts to understand and use confidently major statistical tools as used in all experimental sciences.
The objective is to grasp the usefulness of statistics, as well as its limitations (and avoid some common misunderstandings!). The course will focus on practice of the important concepts on examples, rather than going into theoretical details.
Message to Students
A strong background in Mathematics is not necessary (basically, high-school, 1st year level in Calculus should be enough). Therefore, besides students from Math, Computer Science, Physics, Chemistry, students from Nutrition, Life Science department are also welcome.
