consider a variety of models, including linear regression, hierarchical models,
and models for categorical data.

estimation; Set estimation; Hypothesis testing; Linear models; Asymptotics;
Decision theory; Bayesian Theory.

statistical practice. The content changes each semester in response to
contemporary topics.
Prereq- Stat 310 or 305 and one of 410, 421, or 431 required.

STAT 486 INTRODUCTION TO STOCHASTIC MARKET MODELS Credits 3.00 Spring 02
This course takes the classical efficient market models and superimposes upon
it models for other stochastic phenomena not generally accounted for in
efficient market theory. It shows how risk can be lessened by portfolios and
other mechanism. It discusses reasons why the Black-Scholes option pricing
model (which won the 1997 Nobel Prize in Economics) is fragile to departures
from efficient market theory. The course is oriented toward using computer
simulations as an alternative to closed form solutions.
Prereq- Stat 305, 310 or near equivalent.
