1. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
The Choice Based Credit and Semester and direct grading system was introduced in various
under graduate programmes of Mahatma Gandhi University in the year 2009-10 which was
modified to indirect grading system in 2013-14. The Board of studies in Statistics has made
serious and sincere attempt to make the curriculum of various undergraduate courses in Statistics
and a draft curriculum of the core and complementary courses in Statistics was published in the
year 2016. The Syndicate and Honourable Vice - Chancellor of the Mahatma Gandhi University
take several initiatives to modify and update the draft curriculum.
There are many profound personalities whose relentless support and guidance made this syllabus
restructuring 2017 a success. I take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation to all
those who were part of this endeavour for restructuring the syllabus U G course in Statistics
under Mahatma Gandhi University, Kottayam.
I express profound gratitude to the Honourable Vice–Chancellor, Pro-Vice Chancellor, Registrar,

2. INTRODUCTION
Statistics as Data Science
It is through the scientific search for knowing new, and explaining those already in
existence, Mankind has reached the present level of progress. All branches of science
including Statistics have played their own roles in this Human progress. All the luxuries and
conveniences that we enjoy today are made possible by the scientific search for achieving them.
The method of Statistics is to reach solutions through data evidence. Statistics aims at
validating the conclusions of any search for new knowledge from any branch of science by
extracting information from relevant data. This requires scientific methods for collecting,
presenting, analyzing and interpreting data. Statistics deals with each of these objectives and
hence, Statistics is the Data Science.
Statistics may be formally defined as a branch of science equipped with methods and
methodologies for arriving at valid and logical conclusions to whatever problems under
consideration affecting various spheres of human activities by analyzing sample data sets
drawn from the relevant group(s). In brief, Statistics is the science for extracting information
and learning from data.
Data scientists or learners of statistics must familiarize with various statistical methods for
achieving the four goals namely, collecting, presenting, analyzing and interpreting data.
Statistics has developed a wide variety of theories, methods and methodologies for reaching
the four goals.
The Real Challenge
Though several methods and methodologies have been developed already to meet the
above four goals, most of them are, in fact, either completely unused or serious attention
has not been given in properly applying them in real-life contexts. These theories and
methods have been formulated to meet hypothetical situations, and hence the real challenge
lies not in understanding them but in their proper application and interpretation. It is found
that many people are good at understanding the theories, proofs and derivations already
6
developed, but poor in deciding the appropriate techniques and its proper use in given
contexts. Conclusions of many studies go wrong because of the inadequate and improper use
of techniques and technologies. Hence, the real challenge of Data Scientists and learners of
Statistics lies most in acquiring the expertise in selecting and using appropriate techniques in
real-life contexts than in verifying their proofs or derivations. This Syllabus Revision aims at
achieving these challenges from the part of the learners
The Thrust Area of this Syllabus Revision
Undergraduate learning time is a period where learners for the first time are opened to the
world of statistics formally. They are to understand the theories, methods and methodologies
for achieving the four goals mentioned above, but above all the skill in deciding and using
the appropriate ones. It is found that most of the students are good
at understanding the theories and derivations, but poor at applying them in problems
selected from real life contexts. Hence, this syllabus revision at UG level gives more
importance in giving training in respect of expertise in deciding and applying appropriate
techniques and their manipulation, and drawing valid and logical conclusions than in
introducing new topics or completely overhauling the existing syllabus or ensuring the
theoretical knowledge alone. If a student has to take advantage of Statistical Science in his
life or elsewhere, he has to know the appropriateness of various techniques in a given context
and its proper use.
Results Expected
This change in the Learning process is required to be understood both by Learners and
Facilitators, from the nature of the questions contained in the Model Question Papers
attached. This may be taken only as a set of questions alone, and similar questions
enabling the students to enhance their ability in deciding and applying appropriate technique
and their use, be prepared and solved by both Students and Facilitators.
7
We expect that students undertaking a training in the spirit of the Model Question Papers
attached, will be able to solve problems of even moderate difficulty arising from various real-
life contexts, and also qualify all tests conducted for employment or higher studies by any
national or international agency.
3. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
As Statistics being Data Science for learning from data in the light of what is already said in the
last section, this curriculum revision at UG level had set the following aims while preparing the
learning and evaluation tools especially the syllabus and model questions :
1. Introduce a curriculum that imparts the real spirit with which a beginner may approach the
learning of any scientific stream, not alone Statistics.
2. Introduce a curriculum that attracts the learners to understand theusefulness of various
statistical tools in making their everyday life useful.
3. Introduce Statistics as a branch of science for solving everyday problems by analyzing
relevant data.
4. Introduce standard Statistical sciences and techniques like probability in a very attractive and
enjoyable way.
5. Introduce a curriculum which really prompts the learners to understand that statistical
conclusions are possible from every day data from everybody’s life.
6. Introduce a curriculum that motivates the learners to understand the rationality behind
every technique, and in what way that rationality be used in their lives.
7. A curriculum that stresses the importance of equipping the learners with the expertise in
applying appropriate statistical tools in a given context and in arriving at valid and reasonable
conclusions.
8. A curriculum that gives more importance to the practical side of applying various techniques
than their proof and derivations.
9. Introduce a testing mechanism which calls for understanding of various topics from the part
of the learners up to a level that can ensure a good level of knowledge
8
10.Introduce a curriculum which enables the learners to continue their future study or
employment in a very competing manner.
11.A curriculum that attracts the fresher’s in Statistics to the World of
Statistics where numbers are transformed into information.
4. PROGRAMME DESIGN
The U.G. programme in Statistics shall include (a) Common Courses (CC) I and II, (b) Core

6. CONDUCT OF STATISTICAL COMPUTING

EXAMINATIONS
One Choice-Based Core course in the VI semester of B.Sc. Statistics programme is with title
Statistical Computing with R-software. This course may be taught by using computing facilities
like computers with softwares and Statistical Tables. For this course also there will be both
internal and external evaluation components with maximum marks 20 and 80 respectively.
External examination of this course may be conducted at those examination halls of the
examination centers where computing facilities are available, but NO External Examiner is
needed. Also, the 5 marks earmarked for viva/seminar of the Internal component may be given
for maintaining a Record Book for solving a minimum number of 10 problems, using R-code
from the 4 modules taught in the VI semester. But, courses exclusively for computing purposes
are not conceived for complementary courses in Statistics.

Semester V- Core Course VIII
ST5CRT08–ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES, HUMAN RIGHTS AND

VITAL STATISTICS

The importance of environmental science and environmental studies cannot be disputed. The
need for sustainable development is a key to the future of mankind. Continuing problems of pollution,
solid waste disposal, degradation of environment, issues like economic productivity and national security,
Global warming, the depletion of ozone layer and loss of biodiversity have made everyone aware of
environmental issues. The United Nations Conference on Environment and Development held in Rio de
Janerio in 1992 and World Summit on Sustainable Development at Johannesburg in 2002 have drawn the
attention of people around the globe to the deteriorating condition of our environment. It is clear that no
citizen of the earth can afford to be ignorant of environment issues..
India is rich in biodiversity which provides various resources for people. Only about 1.7 million living
organisms have been described and named globally. Still many more remain to be identified and
described. Attempts are made to conserve them in ex-situ and in-situ situations. Intellectual property
rights (IPRs) have become important in a biodiversity-rich country like India to protect microbes, plants
and animals that have useful genetic properties. Destruction of habitats, over-use of energy resource and
environmental pollution have been found to be responsible for the loss of a large number of life-forms. It
is feared that a large proportion of life on earth may get wiped out in the near future.
In spite of the deteriorating status of the environment, study of environment have so far not received
adequate attention in our academic programme. Recognizing this, the Hon’ble Supreme Court directed
the UGC to introduce a basic course on environment at every level in college education. Accordingly, the
matter was considered by UGC and it was decided that a six months compulsory core module course in
environmental studies may be prepared and compulsorily implemented in all the University/Colleges of
India.
The syllabus of environmental studies includes five modules including human rights. The first two
modules are purely environmental studies according to the UGC directions. The second two modules are
strictly related with the core subject and fifth module is for human rights.
Objectives

Semester V - Course VI
ST5CRT26–ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES, HUMAN RIGHTS

AND DESIGN OF EXPERIMENTS
The importance of environmental science and environmental studies cannot be disputed. The
need for sustainable development is a key to the future of mankind. Continuing problems of pollution,
solid waste disposal, degradation of environment, issues like economic productivity and national security,
Global warming, the depletion of ozone layer and loss of biodiversity have made everyone aware of
environmental issues. The United Nations Conference on Environment and Development held in Rio de
Janerio in 1992 and World Summit on Sustainable Development at Johannesburg in 2002 have drawn the
attention of people around the globe to the deteriorating condition of our environment. It is clear that no
citizen of the earth can afford to be ignorant of environment issues..
India is rich in biodiversity which provides various resources for people. Only about 1.7 million living
organisms have been described and named globally. Still many more remain to be identified and
described. Attempts are made to conserve them in ex-situ and in-situ situations. Intellectual property
rights (IPRs) have become important in a biodiversity-rich country like India to protect microbes, plants
and animals that have useful genetic properties. Destruction of habitats, over-use of energy resource and
environmental pollution have been found to be responsible for the loss of a large number of life-forms. It
is feared that a large proportion of life on earth may get wiped out in the near future.
In spite of the deteriorating status of the environment, study of environment have so far not received
adequate attention in our academic programme. Recognizing this, the Hon’ble Supreme Court directed
the UGC to introduce a basic course on environment at every level in college education. Accordingly, the
matter was considered by UGC and it was decided that a six months compulsory core module course in
environmental studies may be prepared and compulsorily implemented in all the University/Colleges of
India.
The syllabus of environmental studies includes five modules including human rights. The first two
modules are purely environmental studies according to the UGC directions. The second two modules are
strictly related with the core subject and fifth module is for human rights.
Objectives
• Environmental Education encourages students to research, investigate how and why things
happen, and make their own decisions about complex environmental issues by developing and
128
enhancing critical and creative thinking skills. It helps to foster a new generation of informed
consumers, workers, as well as policy or decision makers.
• Environmental Education helps students to understand how their decisions and actions affect the
environment, builds knowledge and skills necessary to address complex environmental issues, as
well as ways we can take action to keep our environment healthy and sustainable for the future.
It encourages character building, and develop positive attitudes and values.
• To develop the sense of awareness among the students about the environment and its various
problems and to help the students in realizing the inter-relationship between man and
environment and helps to protect the nature and natural resources.
To help the students in acquiring the basic knowledge about environment and the social norms that
provide unity with environmental characteristics and create positive attitude about the environment.
