Note: UGPs are NOT mandatory. However, depending on the consent of supervisor(s), a student may take up to 3 UGPs of 09 credits each against DE/OE (UGP will be counted as OE if taken outside the department as consented by the DUGC) requirements. A student can also take a 4th UGP, that however will NOT be counted towards fulfilling the graduation requirements

Note: The department recommends PHY104 & PHY105 for the SDS students.

Note: (As per the Senate approved program) Up to 45 credits of internships in lieu of open electives can be taken. This can be done through the courses MTH321A Internship I, MTH322A Internship II, MTH323A Internship III, MTH324A Internship IV, MTH325A Internship V, of 9 credits each. One would have an option to earn 45 credits of OE through internship courses by spending a full semester in an industry or may do online internships (under one or more OEs) from industry, spread across different semesters. The process for enrolling in the internship courses is as follows: the student identifies a viable internship opportunity in the general realm of statistics and data science and identifies a supervisor in the MTH department. The student, in consultation with the host industry/organization submits a proposal to the Department Undergraduate Committee (DUGC) with the approval of the industry liaison and the departmental supervisor, upon which it will be evaluated for approval and requisite number of credits (in multiples of 9) will be decided. The grading scheme for the internship courses will be S/X.

Note: Guidelines for internships are available in this page.
