Course Goals / Objectives:
Familiarize w/ statistical concepts and terminology in chemical systems and processes: data types & distributions, Central Limit Theorem, sampling, replication & randomization, constructing & testing statistical hypotheses, type I & type II errors
Become familiar with proper ways to report results using critical values, p-values, confidence intervals, and graphical techniques
Master the application and interpretation of the analysis of variance (ANOVA) of data from relatively simple experiments
Master fundamental principles of linear regression models, including models for both continuous and categorical (discrete) factors
Master basic methods of measuring the adequacy of a model, including: analysis of residuals, variance tests, R2 and adjusted R2 statistics, lack-of-fit test
Become familiar with retrospective power analysis and its relation to sample size
Master the basic principles of factorial designs with emphasis on 2k factorial designs, the use of blocking to handle nuisance variables, and fractional factorial designs
Become familiar with the response surface methodology for optimization experiments
Be exposed to advanced experimental designs strategies, including ?optimal? designs, split-plot designs, mixture designs, and method of augmenting existing designs
