Vision NMSC: A place where Science and Technology Education and Research on Indigenous Resource
World works towards a more globally competitive higher education institution.
Mission NMSC will:
1. Produce creative, resourceful, innovative citizens of a borderless world;
2. Contribute significantly to the reservoir knowledge in the endemic resources and
renewable energy in the local context;
3. Provide opportunities with in everyone’s reach;
4. Be a paragon of a financially autonomous Higher Education Institution;
5. Be an exemplar of good governance and transparency.
Goals To establish a strong foundation in the fields of Humanities, Arts and Sciences for the Institution
SAS Objectives 1. Ensure that the Arts and Sciences Programs are Centers of Development by 2025;
2. Serve as a support unit for research center on Arts and Sciences that will produce quality
researches on Natural Sciences, Applied Mathematics, Arts and Humanities;
3. Serve as a support unit for extension services in producing a positive impact on local
communities through community transfer in the domains of the collage mission
COURSE INFORMATION
Course Code Course Title Type Credits
MATH 4C BUSINESS STATISTICS Lecture 3 units
Course Description This course deals with deeper introduction of statistical concepts and applications
needed in business related courses. This course offers a discussion on the collection,
presentation, analysis and interpretation of information in order to yield meaningful
information. It includes topics in sampling procedures, descriptive and inferential
statistics related to business applications.

Pre-requisite Math2A-College Algebra

The course aims to develop the student’s in depth knowledge on how to present,
 analyze, interpret and collect data which leads to meaningful information especially in
COURSE OUTCOMES the field of Business and Economics.

At the end of the course, the students are expected to:

1. properly present and describe information

2. draw conclusion about large populations based only on information obtained
from samples.
3. improve processes like strategies how to improve sales or quality of a product
or improve services delivered by an organization
4. obtain reliable forecasts
5. recognized and appreciate the role in mathematics in the business world.
