Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Understand "elementary" mathematics profoundly
    • Understand the fundamentals of probability and statistics
  • Solve new problems
    • Use knowledge from different fields to address issues
  • Use computers effectively
    • Use at least one programming language
    • Develop computer programs to solve problems with mathematical formulation
  • Address literature and interact within other scientific fields
    • Have a good knowledge of related fields using mathematics

Learning Outcomes of UE

To master software and statistical tools required for data science, more particularly, data importation, management and transformation, data visualization and inference. To present results clearly and adequately in a scientific report. To be able to analyze correctly usual biological data in practice.

Content of UE

The chapters of this UE are: 

- Introduction - Software & tools (Software R, RStudio, git & Markdown)
- Visualisation I - Scatterplot
- Visualisation II - Distributions
- Visualisation III - Barplot/boxplot
- Data processing I - Importation/conversion
- Data processing II - Contingency/sampling
- Data processing III - Multi-tables/databases
- Experimental design & good practices
- Probabilities & distributions
- Chi-2 test, proportions & correlations
- Confidence interval/Student test
- Analysis of variance

Prior Experience

Basic use of a computer. Bases in calculus, including logarithm and exponential, cartesian coordinate system and elementary geometry in 2D and 3D.
