At the undergraduate level, the curriculum focuses on providing a solid base on a diverse range of mathematical subjects, developing technological competency, soft skill and life development. FOSS tools like Scilab, Maxima, and Python are introduced at the undergraduate level. In addition, tools like Matlab, Python, R, Origin and Octave are used for data analysis and computation. In the two-year post-graduate programme a comprehensive syllabus (in accordance with NET/UGC-CSIR syllabus), add-on-courses, summer-internships, self-learning through MOOCs, project work and journal club activities are some of the key features.
A curriculum development cell periodically reviews the curriculum and oversees needed changes. Regular feedback from Students, Alumni, Industry and Academic Experts enhances the quality of an up-to-date syllabus and helps in initiating changes as and when required. Doctoral students numbering 53 contribute to the vibrant ambience of research. Annually the department publishes about 70 research papers in reputed journals. Empowered by experienced, research-focused, committed and skilled team of 19 faculty members, armed with an innovative and updated curriculum and equipped with the best practices of imparting mathematical knowledge, the department has been successful in providing education which is scientific, meaningful and employable as envisaged in the National Policy of Education 2020 of India.
Welcome to the Department of Mathematics!
Since its inception in 1969, the department has been steadily growing with its mission to organize, create, connect and communicate mathematical ideas effectively through 4Ds: Dedication, Determination, Discipline and Direction. In our triple-major undergraduate programme the students acquire a holistic education with a solid foundation in Mathematics while in post-graduation they acquire the knowledge, skills and competency to excel in research, teaching, service sector and industry.
The doctoral students are provided with training opportunities and facilities that are conducive for research. The well chalked-out doctoral programme is facilitated by professors with excellent track-record in research publication. The standard of supervision available in-house is on par with reputed institutes.
Our curriculum caters to the diverse academic and career goals of the students. It covers core subjects and includes summer school programmes, internship activities, service- learning activities, individualized mentoring, research projects, seminars, inter-collegiate and intra-collegiate programmes. The dedicated band of teachers with their vast experience, excellent research credentials and passion for Mathematics make this mathematics fraternity unique and special.
So Welcome aboard! You are just one-step away and a one-decision away from a great experience and a purposeful future!
