"The program will focus on areas of fundamental statistical and mathematical, computational and data science application courses with students having opportunity to do elective courses from the department of computer science and engineering and electrical engineering," he said.

"The programs will prepare and arm students with skills relevant to the rapidly growing interdisciplinary field of big data analytics.

The graduates of the programs will be empowered with the skills and knowledge to build flourishing careers in data science industry and also pursue higher studies in classical and modern statistics, and data science," prof Karandikar added.

“The last decade has seen significant changes in the field of statistics with an ever-increasing focus on the computational aspects of statistical methodologies. Data science, artificial intelligence/machine learning are playing increasingly important roles in finding solutions to diverse real-world problems," the IIT-K director said.

"Research in data science in the next 20 years is expected to focus on developing mathematically rooted models that can be implemented efficiently. The synergy of theory and applications requires training specific to a unique set of skills, and the BS and BS-MS programs have been launched in response to this need of effective implementation in real-life situations," prof Karandikar said.

"To keep students acquainted with new challenges with data and the associated cutting-edge technology, the institute will invite industry personnel for guest lectures, real data analysis projects, seminar presentations and industry internships for students," he said.
