Established in 1941, with Prof. P.C. Mahalanobis as Head,
the Department of Statistics, Calcutta University, the
oldest post-graduate Department in Asia offering a course
in statistics, has nurtures and produced a host of eminent
statisticians who have distinguished themselves both in
India and abroad. The department is regularly visited by
illustrious scholars. Over the years, it has established
itself as one of the prime departments in India for dissipating
knowledge.
Calcutta Statistical Association, an international learned society,
closely associated with the Department, was established in 1945 with
a view to promote activities related to statistics and its allied fields.
The Association publishes an internationally circulated journal of its
own besides organizing lectures, seminars, workshops and symposia, keeping
a close liaison with the academic activities of the Department.
