Statistics Applied to Management

• ApresentaçãoPresentation

  This curricular unit will develop a theoretical component and a practical component. The theoretical component, aiming the introduction to the basic concepts of the discipline, will be essentially expository, trying, however, to give space for students to expose questions. As regards the theoretical-practical component, students will be challenged to put into practice the knowledge transmitted in lectures.
