This
course will prepare students for advanced research by examining how to plan,
conduct and report on empirical investigations with an emphasis on data science
within an application domain (e.g., NLP, Finance, Healthcare, Agriculture, and
Telecommunications). It will also introduce students to practical but
scientific research work, and to encourage independent academic and/or
commercial research among students. The overall outcome is to develop novel solutions to data science-related
problems and communicate the findings (concepts, designs and techniques)
effectively and professionally in accordance with NUST requirements.
Students have to submit three (3) Progress Reports during the year of Thesis, using the link provided.
Due dates are: 17 April, 17 July and 13 November for Report No1, No2 and No3 respectively.

A popular saying goes like this:
If you think logically and hard enough, you will figure it out.
This course is about logical thinking. For you as a Mathematics and Statistics student, we are using mathematical concepts to enable you to think logically. In real sense, this course is not entirely about Mathematics. Rather it is to prepare you to be as good as possible in your chosen field of study. You will not be on your own. I will be there to guide you through.

This course is designed for students pursuing a career in Land Management and related fields. There is no doubt that to be a reliable Land Manager (in whatever aspect of it), basic competencies in Mathematics and Statistics are essential. This course, therefore, deals with those crucial areas of Mathematics and Statistics that are applicable to efficient Land Management and Spatial Science skills.

Today, computers are used in almost all fields of human endeavor wherever data are collected and
analysed. For this reason, certain mathematical topics related to the computer and information
sciences are now being widely studied. To this end, topics covered in this course include the binary
number system, relations and logic circuits, set theory and relations, Boolean algebra and logic gates, combinatorial Analysis.

This course aims to equip students with an understanding of the different rules of differentiation and integration which are required in the applied economics courses and higher mathematical courses like Econometrics and mathematical economics. This course is key to the understanding of critical economic concepts like optimization and marginal analysis.

The course is broken down into two interrelated topics: algebra and trigonometry.
Algebra is a mathematical “language” that generalizes arithmetic by using letters to represent numbers and state arithmetic rules and conclusions so that they will be valid for many or all numbers.
Trigonometry is the branch of mathematics that studies relationships involving lengths and angles.
