As part of the annual celebrations, a Data Science centre will be launched in Tirupati on Monday in which interested candidates can get trained. Prof AM Mathai of McGill University in Canada will inaugurate the centre. Prof Mathai said that there was a scarcity for quality statisticians across the world. The reason was statistics students were searching for jobs soon after completion of their courses and not entering the research field and felt the need to motivate the youth towards research. As Statistics applications are being used in Data Science, the course has assumed enormous significance.
