'''Jagdish Narain Srivastava''' (1933-2010) was an [[India]]n-born [[mathematician]], [[statistician]] and a [[professor]] at [[Colorado State University]].<ref>[http://www.stat.colostate.edu/Facultystaff/srivastava.html From the Dept. of Statistics, Colorado State University] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080512161312/http://www.stat.colostate.edu/Facultystaff/srivastava.html |date=2008-05-12 }}</ref> Srivastava is known for the research in the area of [[Design of experiments]],<ref>Morgan J. P., Ghosh S. & [[Angela Dean|Dean A. M.]] (2014). J. N. Srivastava and experimental design. J. Statist. Plan. Infer. 144, 3–18.</ref> [[Multivariate analysis]] and [[Combinatorial mathematics]]. Srivastava was a Fellow of [[Institute of Mathematical Statistics]].<br />
<br />
J. N. Srivastava received a Ph.D. in 1962 <ref>[http://genealogy.math.ndsu.nodak.edu/id.php?id=22760 Srivastava's Ph.D.]</ref> from the [[University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill]]. Prof. [[R. C. Bose]] was Srivastava's advisor. He joined [[Colorado State University]] in 1966.<ref>[http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8243438/SomeHistory3.pdf Some Prehistory of the Department of Statistics and Statistical Laboratory at Colorado State University] {{Dead link|date=January 2020 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref><br />
<br />
He was known for his contributions in design of experiments as well as in multivariate analysis, survey sampling, reliability, coding theory, combinatorial theory, and other areas of statistics and mathematics.<ref>Multivariate analysis, design of experiments, and survey sampling By Subir Ghosh, Jagdish Narain Srivastava, CRC Press, 1999</ref> [[Srivastava code]] was invented by him.{{fact|date=July 2020}}<br />
<br />
[[Gödel's incompleteness theorem]]s inspired him to recognize the limitations of science. He slowly turned toward spirituality and studied all the major religions of the world. This led him to obtain his 1991 joint appointment in the philosophy department of CSU.{{fact|date=July 2020}}<br />
<br />
After his retirement, he moved to California. He died on 18 November 2010.<ref>[http://mzvtagung.boku.ac.at/Jagdish_Srivastava.html International Conference in Honor of the late Jagdish Srivastava, Optimal Design of Experiments - Theory and Application]</ref> He is survived by his wife of sixty years Usha, son Arvind, daughter Gita and son-in-law Roy; son [[Ashok Srivastava|Ashok]], daughter-in-law Lynn and granddaughter Leela.{{fact|date=July 2020}}<br />
