Introduction to discrete probability models (including the binomial, negative binomial, Poisson, and hypergeometric distributions, their means, variances and cumulative distribution functions). Other topics include probability axioms, equally likely sample spaces (combinatorics), conditional probability, the gamblers' ruin problem, finite state Markov chains, moment generating functions, joint distributions (including the multinomial distribution), marginal distributions, conditional distributions, covariance and correlation, the weak law of large numbers, and, if time permits, the Central Limit Theorem. Students who intend to take A MAT 363 should take A MAT 362, not A Mat 367. Students who have taken A MAT 367 and who wish to take a first statistics course can take A MAT 308. Actuarial students, who need continuous as well as discrete probability, should take A MAT 362 (which constitutes substantial preparation for Actuarial Exam P). A student may not apply both A MAT 362 and A MAT 367 toward any major of minor in mathematics or a minor in statistics. A MAT 367Z is the writing intensive version of A MAT 367; only one may be taken for credit. Prerequisite(s): A MAT 113 or 119 plus 6 credits at the 200 level or above in either mathematics or computer science.
