The unit will lay the foundations for further studies in statistics, operations research and other areas of mathematics and help you to develop your problem-solving and modelling skills. The topics covered include: basic probability rules, conditional probability and independence, discrete and continuous random variables, bivariate distributions, central limit theorem, and introduction to Markov chains. This unit is appropriate for those requiring an introduction to, or a refresher in, probability. The concepts in this unit will be extended in MXB241.","title-full":"MXB101 Probability and Stochastic Modelling 1","title-short":"Probability and Stochastic Modelling 1","url":{"current":"https://qutvirtual4.qut.edu.au/group/student/enrolment/units/unit?unitCode=MXB101&year=2025","prospective":"https://www.qut.edu.au/study/unit?unitCode=MXB101","timetable":"https://qutvirtual3.qut.edu.au/qvpublic/ttab_unit_search_p.process_teach_period_search?p_unit_cd=MXB101"},"year":2025,"years":[2024,2025]}
