2. Pre-Requisites

To pass the course, the student is required to have certain conceptual and argumentative skills, and the equivalent of an introductory course in Calculus and Algebra.

3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession

The statistics course is the only course where students learn statistical techniques in the degree. The student must learn to make decisions based on data and how to represent them.

This course aims to:

-Describe and represent large amounts of data through the main measures of location and dispersion and be able to use graphs.

-Help students acquire the necessary skills for modeling situations with "Variability" techniques.

-Basing the decision-making process in general situations on the basis of incomplete information.

-To familiarize the future with computer techniques that directly reflect key statistics related to computer systems situations, and to use in the exercise of their profession.

In addition you will learn to use a SPSS software and a very powerful language such as R, available for free download specific packages and allows for a multitude of tasks statistical program.

Relationship to other subjects.

This is a subject of vital importance that students acquire a working method and a way of thinking and dealing with the difficulties of logic and rigorous manner. The course will take an interdisciplinary sense connecting problems and proposed materials and examples with other subjects of the curriculum. The concepts studied are used in almost all subjects of enhanced smart systems as well as in matters relating to the study of large amounts of data.

The student will describe tools for models with uncertainty and make decisions in the presence of this uncertainty.

Relationship between the profession

Statistics is a transverse field in a wide variety of disciplines, from physics, chemistry to social sciences. In recent decades, the quality control has approached statistical virtually all businesses and is used for decision making in almost all business areas.

In computing, it is common use for reporting and is also frequently used in areas such as data mining where there is an increasing number of computer professionals working. A level consultants, any consultant should have basic knowledge of statistics, like any computer analyst must know based inference techniques.

8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
Evaluation System Continuous assessment Non-continuous evaluation * Description
Oral presentations assessment 10.00% 0.00% Oral presentation of work/problems ([PRES] 10%).
Progress Tests 50.00% 0.00% The acquisition of the knowledge will be evaluated by means of two optional partial exams, which will be worth 20% of the grade, for the first partial exam and 80% of the grade for the second partial exam ([ESC] 50%)
A minimum score of 3.5 out of 10 is required in each partial to average out the rest of the tests.
Laboratory sessions 25.00% 25.00% Each practice will be evaluated by means of a questionnaire. And there will be a final questionnaire ([LAB] 25%). Performed individually.
Assessment of problem solving and/or case studies 15.00% 75.00% A series of exercises proposed by the teacher will be given on the dates indicated ([INF] 15%). Carried out in groups.
Total: 100.00% 100.00%  
According to art. 4 of the UCLM Student Evaluation Regulations, it must be provided to students who cannot regularly attend face-to-face training activities the passing of the subject, having the right (art. 12.2) to be globally graded, in 2 annual calls per subject , an ordinary and an extraordinary one (evaluating 100% of the competences).

Evaluation criteria for the final exam:
  • Continuous assessment:
    The student who does not pass all the minimum tests required in the subject will have a grade not higher than 4.00 even if the average obtained was another, including more than 5.00.


    Note the superseded parts is saved.
    In the case of not having passed the theoretical part, an examination which must be overcome with a minimum grade of 4 out of 10, counting 50% of the note is held.
    The practices and problem will not be recovered in the regular exam session.
  • Non-continuous evaluation:
    A practices exam, counting 25% of the grade.
    A Problem and theoretical exam, counting 75% of this note.

    Change from continuous to non-continuous assessment. Any student may change to non-continuous assessment if he/she has not been assessed for 50% of the mark by continuous assessment or if he/she has completed the term of the four-month period.
    "By default, the student will be assessed by continuous assessment. If you wish to change to non-continuous assessment, you must indicate this through the following link https://www.esiiab.uclm.es/alumnos/evaluacion.php before the end of the term teaching period. In the event that 50% of the continuous assessment is done before the end of the term, this must be clearly indicated in the previous paragraph, and indicate that the deadline for the change will appear on the virtual campus of the subject

Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
Note the practical parts is saved if the student do not want to repeat the exam to upgrade the note.
The rest is assessed with an exam counting 75% of the grade.
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
A practices exam, counting 25% of the grade.
A Problem and theoretical exam, counting 75% of this note.

General comments about the planning: This course schedule is APPROXIMATE. It could vary throughout the academic course due to teaching needs, bank holidays, etc. A weekly schedule will be properly detailed and updated on the online platform (Virtual Campus). Note that all the lectures, practice sessions, exams and related activities performed in the bilingual groups will be entirely taught and assessed in English. Classes will be scheduled in 3 sessions of one hour and a half per week.
