Teacher in Charge: Dr M. McKubre-Jordens.
Recommended Prior Learning9 Credits of Level 2 Mathematics and Statistics Achievement Standards.
This broad-based course is designed for students who wish to take some mathematics and statistics at Level 3, but do not intend to focus their study in Mathematics or Statistics at the tertiary level. Topics covered will include systems of equations, critical path analysis, and the analysis of bivariate data, with further topics drawn from finding optimal solutions to real-world problems with linear constraints, trigonometry and wave modelling, time series analysis, and conducting statistical experiments. The exact composition of the course will be determined by the teacher in consultation with the students.
This is a UE approved subject, but as it does not carry sufficient external credits, it does NOT allow for a Course Endorsement on your NCEA certificate.
