Concept Note
(Syllabi under Autonomy)While framing the syllabus under Autonomy, we focused on two areas:
Project based learning
Industry oriented training
We tried to achieve our objective by making various changes over the years.
Project based Learning
We introduced drafting of questionnaire for the FYBA/BSc classes to help them understand the basics of survey projects (stating objectives and framing of questions)
Projects have been included in the SYBA/BSc which involve framing of questionnaires, conducting surveys, collecting and analyzing the data.
This gives them an insight into the applications of Statistics in the real world.
Industry oriented Training
Seeing the scope of Statistics, in the Pharmaceutical industry, Bio-equivalence in Clinical trials, was introduced.
To make students competent with software skills required in the future, EXCEL, R and SPSS software was introduced
For the benefit of the Economics and Sociology students (who may not continue with Statistics in the final year) Vital Statistics and Time Series were introduced in FYBA.
Additional Post hoc tests were introduced in the syllabus to enhance their analytical skills.
Urn Model, an important concept in Probability Theory was introduced.
