Statistics for Data Science II
Statistics has provided me with a more scientific and rigorous way of looking at the world. Learning statistics at IIT Madras has been an amazing experience for me. The courses I took lead me into the world of statistics and help me find out the field that I am really interested in. The professors in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics possess extensive knowledge and expertise in their respective research areas. They are always willing to engage with students and offer valuable insights into students’ academic and career paths. I am so grateful to be on this journey with so many great professors, and I would definitely recommend majoring in statistics at IIT Madras. The students will be introduced to large datasets. Using this data, the students will be introduced to various insights one can learn from the data. Advanced concepts of Random Variables also will be introduced during the course leading to a discussion on Bayesian Estimation.
