What is the scope of doing Post Graduation Diploma in Applied Statistics from IGNOU?
PGDAST is concerned with applied statistics. As a result, it requires fewer proofs. There are more theorems, formulas, and methods to employ. While a Masters's program contains numerous proofs as well as an applied component. However, PGDAST will undoubtedly improve your statistical knowledge. Furthermore, statistics have numerous applications in computer science and big data/data research. As a result, it will undoubtedly improve your career prospects. This is especially true given the scarcity of computer engineers who are also statisticians. And statisticians are in high demand in information technology firms. So you have an advantage over others.
It does not entitle you to study higher mathematics or statistics at any Indian university or IIT. Because PGDAST is only a one-year program, as opposed to MSC, which is a two-year program. PGDAST can also be completed by graduates from any discipline. While a Master's in Statistics requires a minimum three-year Bsc degree in Math/statistics. The PGDAST program is a diploma program.
You should go for it if you want to learn statistics. It will undoubtedly be a rewarding experience. One year of effort is not excessive. You must be consistent. To be eligible to sit for term-end exams, you must complete assignments. Even if you do not consider the benefits of computer science, it will almost certainly foster a new way of thinking.

How did you feel after visiting IIT BHU after so many years?
My brother is an alumnus of IIT (BHU) Varanasi and has a special attachment to this place. He still is in touch with his friends from the college. Recently, a miracle happened. He got the golden opportunity to deliver a talk at IIT after 30 years of his graduation.
On reaching the institute he received a warm welcome, and a student even offered to take him on a tour of the campus.
The first visit he made was to his final year hostel that had the most amazing memories, Visvesvaraya Hostel. He realized that apart from a new flow and changes in the occupancy number, everything was just the same. After this, his 2nd and 3rd year hostel, the Limbdi Hostel seemed to have changed a bit and seemed livelier.
By 6 30 he was ready to deliver his lecture although anxious about the audience. Surprisingly enough the hall was full and many had come to attend the lecture. He spoke on the current economic condition of India and answered all their queries. After this, there was a group picture with the members of the club.
The students requested him to give an interview on the current economic scenario of the country. He was amazed by their enthusiasm and agreed to do so.
The visit brought back the best memories and he left with a heavy heart and teary-eyed in awe with the warmth and spirit of the students and the institute.
