Academics
Programme Structure:
The programme offers specializations in :
- Biostatistics and Data Analysis.
- Industrial Statistics and Operation Research
- Financial and Actuarial Statistics
- Computational Statistics
- The courses taken in Semester III are based on the choice of specialization and the relevant optional courses offered in that specialization
- The programme also includes some pre-requisite courses
- The students will be required to undertake an internship of two months. This is during the month of
May and June after completion of the first two semesters. The students undertake their Dissertation as part of the programme in Semester IV. Other than the regular credit course, Institute will also conduct some tutorial and workshop training, which will be a non-credit course
but forms a part of the programme.

Specialization
Students have to choose one of the following specializations in the semester III: 5 courses/specialization
| Course code | Specialization in subject |
| S1 | Biostatistics and Data Analysis |
| S2 | Industrial Statistics and Operations Research |
| S3 | Financial and Actuarial Statistics |
| S4 | Computational Statistics |
Note: For semester three, students need to choose any five courses per specialization.
The Institutional committee may decide
(i) To offer two modules, where courses from these five modules will be merged or
(ii) To offer module specific courses as optional/elective courses or
(iii) To offer module specific/optional/elective courses as compulsory courses.
List of elective subjects:
| Elective | subject |
| E1 | Empirical Processes |
| E2 | Sequential Analysis |
| E3 | Nonparametric Inference |
| E4 | Discrete Data Analysis |
| E5 | Stochastic Models in Epidemiology |
| E6 | Longitudinal Data Analysis |
| E7 | Directional Data Analysis |
| E8 | Big data analytics |
| E9 | Machine learning and AI |
| E10 | Machine learning |
| E11 | AI and algorithm |
| The Director of the Institute may introduce additional optional courses on recommendations of the Institutional Committee. The syllabus of the optional courses will be prepared by the concerned teacher and will be flexible to accommodate new developments in that area. Whenever such an optional course is floated, the concerned syllabus will be discussed and approved in the Institutional committee. | |
