Message from the Director

The Indian Statistical Institute is one of the leading academic institutions in the world. It has a long and proud tradition of excellence in training, teaching and research in a number of academic disciplines including statistics, mathematics, computer science, economics, biology, geology, physics and social science. It attracts some of the brightest minds from all over India, and its alumni have made outstanding contributions to academics, governance and industry. The webpage of the Institute, which has been in existence for quite a few years, providing useful information to one and all about its various facets, has recently been redesigned. I hope that in this new avatar, it will be even more informative to those interested in its activities.
