15.069 Applied Probability and Statistics

()
Prereq: Calculus I (GIR)
Units: 4-0-8
Lecture: MW2.30-4 (E51-085) +final

Presents probability from the perspective of applied mathematics, with strong emphasis on an intuitive overview of key theorems and continuing demonstrations of their usefulness. Covers the laws of probability and numerous important discrete and continuous random variables, both individually and in combination. Introduces simulation. Offers an introduction to statistics that emphasizes its probabilistic foundations and the fact that statistical reasoning is applied common sense. Covers hypothesis testing, statistical sampling, and various forms of regression analysis. Draws applications from economics, finance, engineering, marketing, public policy, operations management, and operations research.

15.275 Creative Industries: Media, Entertainment, and the Arts
(New)

()
Prereq: None
Units: 3-0-6
You must participate in Sloan's Course Bidding to take this subject.
Lecture: W EVE (4-7 PM) (E62-250)

Explores the market structure and dynamics of the creative industries, which include but are not limited to music, television, film, publishing, video games, performing arts, fine arts, sports, fashion, and news. Exposes students to both the creative and business sides of these industries. On the creative side, students learn about content creation and production processes and also experience them, including through developing, pitching, storyboarding, and prototyping an original content idea. On the business side, students learn strategies to distribute, promote, and measure creative content and are given an opportunity to apply these strategies as well. Assignments include individual papers and a semester-long team project.

2.74 Bio-inspired Robotics

()
(Subject meets with 2.740)
Prereq: 2.004 or permission of instructor
Units: 3-1-8
Lecture: MW11-12.30 (3-370) Lab: M2-5 (3-147) or T2-5 (3-147) or W2-5 (3-147) or R2-5 (3-147)

Interdisciplinary approach to bio-inspired design, with emphasis on principle extraction applicable to various robotics research fields, such as robotics, prosthetics, and human assistive technologies. Focuses on three main components: biomechanics, numerical techniques that allow multi-body dynamics simulation with environmental interaction and optimization, and basic robotics techniques and implementation skills. Students integrate the components into a final robotic system project of their choosing through which they must demonstrate their understanding of dynamics and control and test hypothesized design principles. Students taking graduate version complete additional assignments. Enrollment may be limited due to laboratory capacity.

IDS.435[J] Law, Technology, and Public Policy

()
(Same subject as 11.422[J], 15.655[J])
(Subject meets with 11.122[J], IDS.066[J])
Prereq: None
Units: 3-0-9
Lecture: TR3.30-5 (E51-057)

Examines how law, economics, and technological change shape public policy, and how law can sway technological change; how the legal system responds to environmental, safety, energy, social, and ethical problems; how law and markets interact to influence technological development; and how law can affect wealth distribution, employment, and social justice. Covers energy/climate change; genetic engineering; telecommunications and the role of misinformation; industrial automation; effect of regulation on technological innovation; impacts of antitrust law on innovation and equity; pharmaceuticals; nanotechnology; cost/benefit analysis as a decision tool; public participation in governmental decisions affecting science and technology; corporate influence on technology and welfare; and law and economics as competing paradigms to encourage sustainability. Students taking graduate version explore subject in greater depth.
