This course is a continuation of the material in MATH 1131 and MATH 2030. We continue to cover random variables (discrete and continuous), but now move into the multivariate setting. A major topic in this course is joint distributions and conditional expectations. The second half of the course looks at limit theorems and common distributions used in statistics.
This course requires a solid knowledge of univariate and multivariate calculus: especially double integration over non-rectangular regions, changing order of integration, change of variables, and maximization.
