Director, Institute of Applied Statistics
Dear Visitors, Aspirants, Researchers, and Esteemed Colleagues,
It gives me immense pleasure to welcome you to the official website of the Institute of Applied Statistics (IAS), Kanpur. Over the years, IAS has grown into a vibrant academic and professional platform dedicated to advancing the discipline of statistics, biostatistics, and applied research methodologies. Our mission has been clear from the beginning—to make statistical knowledge accessible, practical, and impactful for all those engaged in research, healthcare, academia, and industry.
Since our establishment, IAS has continuously strived to provide quality training programs, hands-on workshops, and capacity-building initiatives that bridge the gap between theory and practice. Whether it is Research Methodology, Data Analysis using SPSS, Biostatistics for clinical research, or Applied Statistical Modelling, our programs are meticulously designed to meet the learning needs of students, scholars, medical professionals, and researchers from varied backgrounds.
A distinguishing feature of IAS is our case-based learning approach. We believe that statistics is not merely about numbers, but about interpreting data to derive meaningful insights that can guide decision-making, policy framing, and scientific innovation. Through real-world case studies, we equip our participants with the confidence to handle data independently and to apply statistical tools effectively in their respective fields.
Over the past nine years, our journey has been marked by several milestones, including the training of thousands of scholars and professionals, hosting national-level workshops, certificate programmes and building strong collaborations with research organizations, universities, and healthcare institutions. Our Foundation Day celebrations every year remind us of the progress we have made and the challenges that lie ahead in shaping the next generation of researchers and statisticians.
Our vision is to make IAS not only a centre of excellence in statistical education but also a national resource hub for applied research and data-driven innovation. In an era where data is the new driving force for progress, we see our role as both educators and enablers—preparing individuals to unlock the potential of data in solving complex societal and scientific challenges.
As the Director, I take great pride in the dedication of our faculty, staff, and resource persons, whose expertise and commitment have been the foundation of our success. I also express my heartfelt gratitude to our participants and collaborators, whose trust in our programs motivates us to continuously innovate and improve.
I warmly invite you to explore our website to learn more about our training programs, upcoming events, and opportunities for collaboration. Whether you are a student seeking guidance, a researcher looking for advanced statistical tools, or an organization aiming to enhance research capacity, the Institute of Applied Statistics stands ready to support you in your journey.
Together, let us continue to harness the power of statistics to drive knowledge, discovery, and societal impact.
With warm regards,
