The Curriculum Issue: Where, When and How Can We Teach
Stochastics?
Monica Dumitrescu
University of Bucharest, Faculty of Mathematics, Bucharest, Romania
The starting point of this discussion is the necessity of a
clearly defined science stochastics and its precise situation
among other exact sciences. The lectures and the discussions in
our Symposium have already emphasized the fact that stochastics
should be an independent science, with strong correlations with
most of other sciences. The nowadays ever increasing globalization
has its correspondent in the increasing interdependence of
sciences, but each science has specified goals and tools -- in
respect with each other and towards the real world. One of the
important issues which need to be discussed is education in
stochastics. Why is it necessary? Where, when and by whom could
science stochastics be taught? This paper is an attempt to answer
these questions.
