FOUR YEAR UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMME IN STATISTICS
PREAMBLE
The 4 year undergraduate degree programme in Statistics offers 20 papers in Discipline Course I (DC-I)
including one paper on Research Methodology and one paper on Research/Dissertation; Six papers in
Discipline Course II (DC-II) and four papers in Applied Course (AC). The new syllabus has been designed
keeping in view the potential application arising from industries, market and academics for the
undergraduate students of Statistics. While designing this course the three exit points have also been duly
considered.
The papers of DC-I are designed to provide the knowledge of Basic Statistics, Applied Statistics,
essentials of Mathematics, knowledge of computer language and the use of statistical packages. The course
is designed in a manner such that the use of Statistics with knowledge of computers may contribute
significantly in the area of research and in inter-disciplinary courses.
The six papers of DC-II are designed to teach theoretical and practical aspect of Statistics to the
students of other disciplines in a simple and concise manner. This will also enable them to pursue the
subject of Statistics at the higher-education level.
The four applied courses are designed to empower the students with statistical techniques to
analytically deal with the data based situations arising in the sectors such as industry, geography, geology,
environmental sciences, ecology, insurance, business and markets, finance, experimental sciences and
observational studies. This avenue is open to both the Statistics and the non-Statistics students.
