Course content
Educational discipline "Fundamentals of mathematical statistics and probability theory"
belongs to the mandatory components of the educational program of training specialists in education
at the "bachelor" level of the field of knowledge 10 - Natural sciences with a specialty 106 - Geography
educational program "Cross-border ecological cooperation". The discipline "Fundamentals
of mathematical statistics and the theory of probabilities" studies theoretical and probabilistic and
statistical methods of collecting, systematizing and processing the results of observations with a goal
detection of statistical regularities of a feature or features of a certain set of elements and
covers the following range of questions: fundamentals of combinatorics, random events and random
values, sampling and its characteristics, as well as paired linear regression.
It is taught in the 1st semester of the 1st course in the amount of 120 hours. (4 ECTS credits) in particular: lectures – 28
hours, practical - 28 hours, independent work - 64 hours. The course includes 2 contents
modules and 2 modular test papers. The discipline ends with a test.
