The title Applied Statistics & Analytics captures the guiding spirit of the Program: Reality has Primacy. It aspires to prepare the students, in a systematic and scientific way what David Spiegel halter calls “The Art of Statistics: Learning from Data”. Upon completion of this 2-year post-graduate program and 3 year under-graduate program, the learners will be proficient in deploying a rich port folio of statistical as well as data analytic techniques using contemporary software tools for the purpose of solving real-life problems. They will be able to ascertain facts from figures and distil insights from index numbers. Case-based, problem-based, and project-based teaching-learning activities are infused throughout the Program, with research work kick-starting at the very first semester. Flipped/ blended learning methods are implemented with a strong emphasis on ‘deliverables’ of learner activities. Academia-industry collaborative initiatives are under way to help our students learn straight from the horse’s mouth. The PPDAC problem-solving cycle (see the adjacent graphic) is at the heart of our approach to the activity-based 2-year post-graduate Program of MSc in Applied Statistics & Analytics and 3-year under-graduate program of BSc in Statistics at MAKAUT, WB. Seeking your best wishes and cooperation for the success of this Program.

The department of applied statistics was originally inducted as study units of THE DEPARTMENT OF APPLIED SCIENCE which subsequently emerged out as an independent department under the school of Applied Science and Technology.

Because of this interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary activities, the units have emerged as independent identities from their previous common existence under the department of applied science. At the moment, the department is deeply engrossed with various research and project activities that have earned appreciations from different corners of the academic world and other stakeholders. The department seriously riveting to take part in developing the course-curriculum and in teaching-learning methodologies keeping synergy with global universities of reputation and with the continuous growth and the demand of many standing industries of the day. I take this opportunity to thank and convey best wishes to all of you.
