Department of Statistics

The prestigious department of Statistics was established in 1950 at UG level under Agra University, Agra. Later on, PG classes were started from 1960. Since then, the department is serving this auspicious semi-urban region and imparting quality education in the field of Statistics and Agricultural Statistics. Research activities are also going on in the department in different areas viz. reliability analysis, design of experiments, reliability estimation, software reliability, demography etc. we have on enriched list of alumni also.
