The objective of the course is to give a broad introduction to basic sampling theory and related statistical inference. The course is built on lectures, exercises and computer exercises. Exercises and computer exercises are mandatory. On completion of the course, the student will be able to: • understand basic concepts of sampling from finite and infinite populations • describe some basic sampling methods including conditions and assumptions • describe and apply basic estimators for survey sampling • select an appropriate sampling method for a given problem • carry out a basic probability sampling survey • interpret and evaluate results from basic surveys correctly and draw reasonable conclusions • clearly and concisely communicate results and conclusions • use statistical software for samplingInnehåll
