BSTA 512 Linear Models

This course focuses on linear models and develops an understanding of regression analysis using simple and multiple linear regression. The course emphasizes theoretical foundations for appropriate interpretation and application of regression models. Model interpretations will include relationships between a continuous outcome and continuous covariates, categorial covariates, and interaction terms between covariates. Through coding, the course builds skills in fitting regression models, interpreting coefficients, making predictions, and diagnosing potential model issues.
