VI. Class Schedule
Week Topic
1 Introduction and data treatment (CH.2)
2 Probability distributions (CH.4)
3 Probability density--normal distribution (CH. 5)
4 Curve fitting --least-squares(CH. 11)
5 Test of hypotheses-- mean (CH.7)
6 Test of hypotheses -- variance (CH. 8)
7 Analysis of variances (CH.12)
8 Analysis of variances (CH.12)
9 Factorial design of experiments (CH.13)

VI. Class/Laboratory Schedule
Two 50-minute lectures and one 2 hours and 50-minute laboratory per week.
Homework must be turned in prior to the start of class on the day that it is due. No late homework will be accepted.
Not all of the assigned problems will be graded, but you will not know in advance which will be graded, so it is best to do
them all. An engineer’s work should be neat, well organized, and easy to follow.
If you need academic accommodations due to physical, psychological or learning disability(ies), please be sure to contact me
as soon as possible so we can discuss what arrangements need to be made.
VIII. Academic Integrity
As noted in the University Catalog: “All forms of academic dishonest at Cal Poly Pomona are a violation of university policy and will be
considered a serious offence.” For this course “academic honesty includes but is not limited to: Plagiarism…, Cheating during Exams…
and Use of Unauthorized Study Aids…” As a student in this class it is assumed that you maintain academic integrity and honesty.
Cheating can result in a grade of F in this class, or worse! So don’t do it.
