Indian Statistical Instiute, Kolkata Reviews

A temple for learning mathematics. Flexible but aggressive learning environment. Highly dedicated professors and profesors with huge experience

It is a eminent institute of statistics and mathematics. Various path changing researches have been conceived and brought into the light by extraordinary people of this institute. President of India and vice president of India visited this institute on statistic day (29th June) in the year 2017 and 2018 respectively.

Great faculty and great place to study for Mathematics and Statistics

its awesome ......... i want to study B.Math ........ my dream institute .................

Working as an institute research fellow (ISI JRF) and recently submitted my thesis here. A real place of education, which is full of world famous scientists.

Really good place .. Probably the best in India to study B.Stat and B.math. They also provide various research options. Best in class education is given to students. But selection process is tough to get through.

Fine atmosphere. Interacted with Dr. Bimal Roy. Fruitful conversation.

Project on Quantum Information and Computation was Awesome !!!

Nice teachers!!!!Nice classroom!!Such a good place to learn!!!

Mahalanobis set up the Statistical Laboratory in the Presidency College sometime in the 1920s. On 17 December 1931, the Indian Statistical Institute was founded as a learned society and housed in the Statistical Laboratory. The Institute was registered on 28 April 1932, as a non-profit distributing learned society under the Societies Registration Act (XXI of 1860) and is now registered under the West Bengal Societies Registration Act XXVI of 1961 amended in 1964. Sir R.N. Mookerjee accepted the office of the President of the Institute, and held this office until his death in 1936.
During the 1920s and until the mid-1930s, all or nearly all the statistical work done in India, was done single-handedly by Mahalanobis. The early statistical studies included analyses of data on stature of Anglo-Indians, meteorological data, rainfall data, data on soil conditions, etc. Some of the
findings of these early studies were of great impact in the control of floods, development of agriculture, etc., and led to the recognition of Statistics as a key discipline.
Mahalanobis' influence was so pervasive that students of Physics began to take interest in Statistics. Subhendu Sekhar Bose was the most notable of them. Later, several talented young scholars including J.M. Sengupta, H.C. Sinha, R.C. Bose, S.N. Roy, K.R. Nair, K. Kishen and C.R. Rao, joined to form an active group of statisticians. Mahalanobis continued to be the nucleus. Theoretical
research in Statistics began to flourish in the Institute. Research on large scale sample surveys won Mahalanobis a Fellowship of the Royal Society. Design and analysis of agricultural experiments also bloomed and led to some international contacts, notably with Sir Ronald A. Fisher..

My son cracked the isi entrance test and completed his b.stat and m.stat course a prestigious degree in statistics.I used to go there off and on and feel enrichment in my mind.He is doing PHD in Statistics in USA and about to finish his program.

This is an international acclaimed center of studies in the field of mathametic and statistical analysis study.

This is one of World Class Institution.
Founded by Prasanta Chandra Mahalanobis.

Indian Statistical Institute (ISI) is a public research university which is recognized as institute of national importance in 1959 act of the Indian parliament.[2] It grew out of the Statistical Laboratory set up by Prasanta Chandra Mahalanobis in Presidency College, Kolkata. Established in 1931, this university of India is one of the oldest and most prestigious institutions focused on statistics, and its early reputation led it to being adopted as a model for the first US institute of Statistics set up at the Research Triangle, North Carolina by Gertrude Mary Cox.[3]

Mahalanobis, the founder of ISI, was deeply influenced by wisdom and guidance of Rabindranath Tagore and Brajendranath Seal. Under his leadership, the institute initiated and promoted the interaction of Statistics with natural and social sciences to advance the role of Statistics as a key technology by explicating the twin aspects its general applicability and its dependence on other disciplines for its own development. The institute is now considered as one of the foremost centres in the world for training and research in Computer science, Statistics, Quantitative Economics and related sciences.

It is one of the most prestigious institute for mathematics , statistics , physics , Economics etc. Very good atmosphere for study .

One of the greatest institutions! I want my daughter to be admitted in ISI.

The institute (ISI) needs no introduction. Academically its one of the most renowned. Inside the campus there are trees and ponds and ofcourse a lot of academic buildings. There is also a museum where there is a real dinosaur skeleton on display. There are also a lot of other findings too. The food in the canteen is sumptuous and affordable. The outside Dunlop area is a bit congested but the ISI campus is perfect for studying.

BStat at Kolkata. BMath at Bengaluru.
Toughest entrance:
Objective paper;
Subjective paper &
Interview.

More than a center of excellence. An Icon, an example

Traditionally, ISI offers fewer programs (and admits fewer students) than most other degree granting academic institutions. Following the empowerment for granting degrees in the subject of Statistics as per the ISI Act 1959, in 1960, ISI initiated bachelor level degree program Bachelor of Statistics and master level degree course Master of Statistics, and also began awarding research level degrees such as PhD and DSc

Study.....study......study......study.......study.......study......................................study..........more &more study ......study .....more and more study ....... no end of study ...... study is the life ..... study is good for mind . It can refresh your mind . ....... study is my hobby .....study amplifies concentration of mind ......keep studying.

Good institution .One of the best institute in west bangal

Indian Statistical institute is a very old institution for statistical advance education founded by Dr.Prashanta Mahalanobis. It's on BT Road, near Baranagar, from shaymbazar it is 20 minutes drive. This is one of the best institution in India.

None of the contact number working, listed on the isi Kolkata website. No contact number (especially dean office number) is reachable for any query. Worst experience while contacting dean office. seems everyone is sleeping there.

Undoubtedly the best place to study Mathematics and Statistics.

One of the best institution for research work. Professors are down to earth. the surprising thing here is FOOD in the canteen at the cheapest price.

A premier Institute, epitome of research and scientific development and looks into the future. Come and explore the varied intellectual brains swarming in the campus, also with the pinch of taste enhancing cultural activities too.

A research institute of great eminence founded by Professor P C Mahalanabis (1893-1972), father of studies in statistics in India. Beautiful campus.

Indian Statistical Institute is one of the best institution in India. It was established by Prasanta Chandra Mahalanbis and contributes in statistics and mathematics. I have heard that this institute used the first computer in India.

Very famous Institute. Founded by Dr P C Mahalanabis. Studying here is a dream for good students.

It is one of the best place in India for Math and Stat lovers. The other departments like computer science, quantitative economics are equally strong. Overall an ideal place for people who loves Academics.

Professors are great..Spent one semester in this place as a part of post graduation in business analytics.. had a great time learning wise..Not many food options inside campus

A top Institute in India in the field on Maths & Statistics.....

One of the best educational institute in India. it's located adjacent to B.T. road , Baranagar. It is the headquarter of all ISI. It was founded by P. C. Mahalanobis, a great statistician of India.
