Testimonios de los estudiantes
“This is by far the best probability & statistics course available--online or in the classroom.”
"You won’t find another intro to probability with greater depth and breadth."
"This is a great course for those serious about forming a solid foundation in probability."
"[This course] has created a love for probabilistic models, that, I guess, truly govern everything around us."
"This should be in top 10 MOOCs of all time."
Preguntas frecuentes
How is this class related to 6.041x?
The material covered, and the resources (videos, etc.) are largely the same, but homeworks and exams contain revised and new problems.
What textbook do I need for the course?
None - there is no required textbook. The class follows closely the text I ntroduction to Probability, 2nd edition, by Bertsekas and Tsitsiklis, Athena Scientific, 2008. (See the publisher's website or Amazon.com for more information.) However, while this textbook is recommended as supplemental reading, the materials provided by this course are self-contained.
What is the format of the class?
The course material is organized along units, each unit containing between one and three lecture sequences. (For those who purchase the textbook, each unit corresponds to a chapter.) Each lecture sequence consists of short video clips,interwovenwith short problems to test your understanding. Each unit also contains a wealth of supplementary material, including videos that go through the solutions to various problems.
How much do I need to work for this class?
This is an ambitious class in that it covers a lot of material in substantial depth. In addition, MIT considers that the best way to master the subject is by actually solving on your own a fair number of problems. MIT students who take the corresponding residential class typically report an average of 11-12 hours spent each week, including lectures, recitations, readings, homework, and exams.

¿Quién puede hacer este curso?
Lamentablemente, las personas de uno o más de los siguientes países o regiones no podrán registrarse para este curso: Irán, Cuba y la región de Crimea en Ucrania. Si bien edX consiguió licencias de la Oficina de Control de Activos Extranjeros de los EE. UU. (U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control, OFAC) para ofrecer nuestros cursos a personas en estos países y regiones, las licencias que hemos recibido no son lo suficientemente amplias como para permitirnos dictar este curso en todas las ubicaciones. edX lamenta profundamente que las sanciones estadounidenses impidan que ofrezcamos todos nuestros cursos a cualquier persona, sin importar dónde viva.
