PART-A

STATISTICS FOR ECONOMICS

Units 3 Statistical Tools and Interpretation

Unit-4 DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS IN ECONOMICS

The students be encouraged to develop projects which have primary data, secondary data or both. Case studies of a few organizations may also be encouraged. Some of the examples of the projects are as follows (they are not mandatory but more suggestive).

i) A Report on demographic structure of your neighbourhood/Institution.

ii) Consumer awareness amongst households.

iii) Changing prices of a few vegetables in your market.

iv) Study of a co-operative institution: Milk Co-operatives.

NOTE:- (The idea behind introducing this unit is to enable the students the ways and means by which project can be developed using the skills learned in the course. This include all the steps involved in designing a project starting from choosing a title, exploring the information relating to the title. Collection of primary and secondary data, analysing the data, presentation of the project and using various statistical tools and their interpretation and conclusion.)
