The curriculum for our Probability Theory course is absolutely wonderful, exploring the topics of beginning statistics with a fresh approach, devoid of the "here's the next formula and here's what it means" commonly found in traditional textbook courses.
Our Distance Calculus Probabality Theory course is highly experimentation-based, so you will run simulations in either LiveMath or Mathematica, and look at the topics empirically, trying to determine what is going on with the mathematics like a good scientist would - using observation and deductive reasoning.
Probability Theory covers the all of the topics in a basic non-major Statistics course. You do not need to have taken "baby" Statistics prior to taking Probability Theory - but you will need Calculus II under your belt.
