Note: The question paper will include a Section on Open Text Based Assessment (OTBA) of 10 marks from Unit-6 of Part-B. From this unit, no other questions will be asked in the theory examination. The OTBA will be asked only during the annual examination to be held in the March 2017. The open text material on the identified unit will be supplied to students in advance. The OTBA is designed to test the analytical and higher order thinking skills of students.
Part A: Statistics for Economics In this course, the learners are expected to acquire skills in collection, organisation and
presentation of quantitative and qualitative information pertaining to various simple economic aspects systematically. It also intends to provide some basic statistical tools to analyse, and interpret any economic information and draw appropriate inferences. In this process, the learners are also expected to understand the behaviour of various economic data.
UNIT 1: Introduction 07 Periods
What is Economics? Meaning, scope and importance of statistics in Economics
Unit 2: Collection, Organisation and Presentation of data 27 Periods
Collection of data - sources of data– primary and secondary; how basic data is collected, with concepts of Sampling; methods of collecting data; some important sources of secondary data: Census of India and National Sample Survey Organisation.
Organisation of Data: Meaning and types of variables; Frequency Distribution. Presentation of Data: Tabular Presentation and Diagrammatic Presentation of Data: (i)
Geometric forms (bar diagrams and pie diagrams), (ii) Frequency diagrams (histogram, polygon and ogive) and (iii) Arithmetic line graphs (time series graph).
(v)
(vi)
Unit 3 : Statistical Tools and Interpretation 66 Periods
(For all the numerical problems and solutions, the appropriate economic interpretation may be attempted. This means, the students need to solve the problems and provide interpretation for the results derived.)
Measures of Central Tendency- mean (simple and weighted), median and mode Measures of Dispersion– absolute dispersion (range, quartile deviation, mean deviation and
standard deviation); relative dispersion (co-efficient of range, co-efficient of quartile-deviation, co-efficient of mean deviation, co-efficient of variation); Lorenz Curve: Meaning, construction and its application.
Correlation– meaning, scatter diagram; Measures of correlation– Karl Pearson’s method (two variables ungrouped data) Spearman’s rank correlation.
Introduction to Index Numbers– meaning, types– wholesale price index, consumer price index and index of industrial production, uses of index numbers; Inflation and index numbers.
Part B : Indian Economic Development
Unit 4 : Development Experience (1947-90) and Economic Reforms since 1991 34 Periods
A brief introduction of the state of Indian economy on the eve of independence. Common goals of Five Year Plans.
Main features, problems and policies of agriculture (institutional aspects and new agricultural strategy, etc.), industry (industrial licensing, etc.) and foreign trade.
Economic Reforms since 1991: Need and main features– liberalisation, globalisation and privatisation;
An appraisal of LPG policies
Unit 5 : Current challenges facing Indian Economy 60 Periods
Poverty- absolute and relative; Main programmes for poverty alleviation: A critical assessment; Rural development: Key issues– credit and marketing– role of cooperatives; agricultural
diversification; alternative farming– organic farming Human Capital Formation: How people become resource; Role of human capital in economic
development; Growth of Education Sector in India Employment: Formal and informal, growth and other issues: Problems and policies. Inflation: Problems and Policies Infrastructure: Meaning and Types: Case Studies: Energy and Health: Problems and Policies-
A critical assessment; Sustainable Economic Development: Meaning, Effects of Economic Development on
Resources and Environment, including global warming.
Unit 6 : Development Experience of India: (OTBA) 14 Periods
A comparison with neighbours India and Pakistan India and China Issues: growth, population, sectoral development and other developmental indicators.Part C : Developing Projects in Economics 12 Periods
The students may be encouraged to develop projects, as per the suggested project guidelines. Case studies of a few organisations / outlets may also be encouraged. Under this the students will do one comprehensive projects using concepts from both part A and part B.
Some of the examples of the projects are as follows (they are not mandatory but suggestive):
(vii)
(i) A report on demographic structure of your neighborhood. (ii) Changing consumer awareness amongst households. (iii) Dissemination of price information for growers and its impact on consumers. (iv) Study of a cooperative institution: milk cooperatives, marketing cooperatives, etc. (v) Case studies on public private partnership, outsourcing and outward Foreign Direct
Investment. (vi) Global warming. (vii) Designing eco-friendly projects applicable in school such as paper and water recycle. The idea behind introducing this unit is to enable the students to develop the ways and means
by which a project can be developed using the skills learned in the course. This includes 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.
