Learning Outcomes

  • demonstrate understanding of the probability foundations of various stochastic process models through proofs, examples, and computer simulations.
  • use appropriate stochastic processes to model various scientific phenomena.
  • use analytic and numerical techniques to analyze essential stochastic processes, including Markov chains, Poisson processes, Markov processes, and Brownian motion.
