All Students should be aware that the
Department of Mathematical Sciences takes the NJIT Honor Code very seriously
and enforces it strictly. This means that there must not be any forms of plagiarism,
i.e., copying of homework, class projects, or lab assignments, or any form of
cheating in quizzes and exams. Under the Honor Code, students are
obligated to report any such activities to the Instructor.

Prerequisites:
Math 341 or Math 333, and
departmental approval.
Number of Credits: 3
Course Description: Probability, conditional probability, random variables and distributions, independence, expectation, moment generating functions, useful parametric families of distributions, transformation of random variables, order statistics, sampling distributions under normality, the central limit theorem, convergence concepts and illustrative applications.
Departmental Policies:
Attendance: Students must attend all classes. Absences from
class will inhibit your ability to fully participate in class discussions and problem
solving sessions and, therefore, affect your grade. Tardiness to class is very
disruptive to the instructor and students and will not be tolerated.
Makeup Exam Policy: There will be no makeup exams, except in rare
situations where the student has a legitimate reason for missing an exam,
including illness, death in the family, accident, requirement to appear in
court, etc. The student must notify the Math office and the Instructor that
he/she will miss an exam. In all cases, the student must present proof for
missing the exam, e.g., a doctor's note, police report, court notice, etc.,
clearly stating the date AND times.
Cellular phones: All cellular phones and beepers must be switched off
during all class times.
