Embedding the fundamental knowledge of basic statistics and, at the same time, the knowledge required to deal with practical and research needs for food technologists.\r\n\r\nSummary of contents\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Examination and processing of data: accuracy and reliability of the sample, reference scales, categories of variables, descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, median, quartiles, Box plot), basic distributions.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Rating scales ofcharacteristics of a product. Types of sampling: random, systematic, aggregate, longitudinal, stratified.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Parametric statistical tests: tests of the distribution and homogeneity of the variance, tests of the distribution t, one-way analysis of variance, random and fixed factors, tests of multiple comparisons of means. Simple linear regression and correlation. Comparison of linear regressions and correlations.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Non-parametric tests of rank variables (Mann-Witney, Wilcoxon, Kruskal-Walis and Mood tests, Spearman's and Kendall's tests), tests of comparison of proportions. Tests of categorical variables (x2and G-test), correlation indices.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nB) Computational statistics and data analysis\r\n\r\nApplication of statistical methods of data analysis using statistical software. Learning the commands of descriptive statistics, descriptive statistics, two-sample hypothesis (t test,) analysis of variance (F test), regression, correlation and frequencies (categorical variables). Interpretation of the results of statistical analyses based on examples from food science.\r\n\r\nSummary of contents\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Computational statistics: Impact of computers on statistical methodology (bioinformatics, computational graphics), exploration and modeling of data. Methods of product optimization, evaluation and validity of results via statistical process.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Strategies for data analysis: application of methods to selected sciences (biostatistics, industrial statistics), data classification, population estimation, experimental design, parametric and non-parametric methods.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Specific applications: Comparison of statistical methods, application of statistics to real-life.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Comparison of statistics with real data (case studies).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>","goals":"<ul>\r\n \t<li>Acquiring knowledge in the basic principles of statistical analysis specially designed for the needs of the Food Industry.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Understanding of statistical terms and methodology in order to consolidate a different philosophy of thought and perception of experimental data and processes.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Ability to design simple experimental designs and ensure successful completion during their implementation.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Gain experience in managing statistical and graphical programs using a PC.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Facilitation in the recognition of problematic situations and faster understanding, interpretation and finding solutions by testing statistical knowledge.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>","skills":"<ul>\r\n \t<li>Promoting creative initiative and transmission of thinking.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Encouraging participation in group assignment projects in the same workplace or interdisciplinary.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Projecting internal knowledge for decision making.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Searching and analyzing data using the acquired skills.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Flexibility in dealing with adverse conditions.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Respect in the work environment.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>","teaching_methods":"Face to face:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Lectures (theory and problems) in the classroom.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Practical exercises (practice in the statistical software MINITAB by solving educational problems).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>","ict_usage":"<ul>\r\n \t<li>Presentation with PowerPoint slides using PC and projector.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Posting course material and communicating with students on the Moodle online platform.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Use of electronic devices for recording data and solving practical exercises.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>","teaching_organization":{"activity_1":{"description":"Lectures","workload":26},"activity_2":{"description":"Practical exercises","workload":26},"activity_3":{"description":"Project writing","workload":52},"activity_4":{"description":"Independent study","workload":46},"activity_5":{"description":"","workload":""},"activity_6":{"description":"","workload":""}},"students_evaluation":"Evaluation methods:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>Written final exams in the theoretical part of the course (Statistics for food technologists) (50% of the final grade).<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Compulsory attendance at (at least) 80% of the practical exercises.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Written final exams in the practical part of the course (Computational statistics and data analysis) involving problem solving using the statistical software MINITAB (50% of the final grade).<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Optional exams in the practical part of the course using computers as previously stated (20% of the previous grade).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\nThe course material and the evaluation criteria are presented and analyzed at the beginning of the semester in the classroom but also permanently online.","bib_textbooks":"\u03a3\u03c4\u03b1\u03c4\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ae \u03b3\u03b9\u03b1 \u03a4\u03b5\u03c7\u03bd\u03bf\u03bb\u03cc\u03b3\u03bf\u03c5\u03c2 \u03a4\u03c1\u03bf\u03c6\u03af\u03bc\u03c9\u03bd\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>Agarwal B.L., (1988), Basic Statistics, 2<sup>nd<\/sup> Ed., Wiley Eastern Ltd., New Delhi, pp. 758.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Everitt B.S., (1994), The Analysis of Contigency Tables, 2<sup>nd<\/sup> Ed., Chapman &amp;
