Overview
The Statistics program at Savitribai Phule Pune University has some unique features such as independent projects, a large number of elective courses, pre-requisite system and extensive computer training of statistical computations including standard software packages such as Mathematica, MATLAB , Minitab, R, Python, etc.
The independent project work is one of the important components of this program. The syllabus of the first year (two semesters) covers most of the core courses. In the second year of the syllabus, there are four core courses, five optional courses and one project.
