Here's what we actually use from the prereq classes:519 Follow-up courses: various statistics classes
419 Follow-up courses: Math 436 Numerical Analysis, various statistics classes
Some experience using Excel, R, or Python will also be VERY helpful (or Matlab or Sage, or to a lesser extent Maple or Mathematica), but it is not strictly a prerequisite.
519: Linear algebra at the level of Math 122 and probability at the level of Stat 360 is assumed.
419: Math 122 and at least one of Math/Stat 223, 311, 319, 360, 370
Prerequisites Classes
Completion of basic linear algebra and probability is assumed. Discrete and Continuous Time Markov chains, Renewal processes and generalizations, queueing theory, time series, Brownian motion, and dynamic programming. 519: Models of randomness in a variety of applications.
An important part of the course is an opportunity for a student to become involved in an actual modeling problem. Discrete time Markov chains, Poisson processes and generalizations, time series, Brownian motion, and dynamic programming. actuarial studies, economics, biology, engineering, and others as appropriate for student population. 419: Models of randomness in a variety of fields:
Official Course Catalog Entry
The campus of Eastern Michigan University is located on the traditional territory (ceded in the 1807 Treaty of Detroit) of the Anishinaabeg, which refers collectively to the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi (also known as the People of the Three Fires), and was also home to the Wendat/Wyandot people. This acknowledgement is included here to honor the elders and stewards of these heritages.

We believe that the RELATIONSHIPS we have and those we continue to develop will support us as we learn and grow together as a community. We believe the INTEGRITY of our work and the RESPECT we show for our fellow students, faculty, alumni and staff are an integral part of our ongoing EDUCATION.Eastern Michigan University Creed

Acts of sexual violence are intolerable. Eastern Michigan expects all members of the campus community to act in a manner that does not infringe on the rights of others. We are committed to eliminating all acts of sexual violence. Eastern Michigan faculty and staff are concerned about the well-being and development of our students. We are obligated to share information with the Eastern Michigan Title IX Coordinator in certain situations to help ensure that the students’ safety and welfare is being addressed, consistent with the requirements of the law. These disclosures include but are not limited to reports of sexual assault, relationship violence, and stalking. If you have experienced or know someone who has experienced sexual violence, services and resources are available. You may also choose to file a report. For further information, contact Dr. Doris Fields, EMU's Interim Title IX Coordinator, dfields1@emich.edu; 734.487.7696, and visit the Sexual Misconduct Prevention and Response Office website ad - z { !
