Vision

Creating a congenial environment to learn mathematical design and to use Mathematical knowledge for problem solving

Mission

  • To work towards transformation of young people to component and motivated professionals with sound theoretical and practical knowledge.
  • To inculcate in students the ability to apply mathematical and computational skills to model, formulate and solve real life application
  • To make the students capable of discharging professional, social and economic responsibilities ethically.

OBJECTIVES

  • Develop a positive attitude towards learning Mathematics
  • Think and reason precisely, logically and critically in any given situation
  • Develop investigative skills in Mathematics
  • Appreciate the role, value and use of Mathematics in society
  • Identify, concretize, symbolize and use mathematical relationships in everyday life
  • To teach the essentials of mathematics for non mathematics students as a crash course

Best Practices

  • Involve students in collaborative work- such as to prepare departmental wall magazine, department Bulletin and they are given the full freedom to prepare it at their own choice. We have seen that this create their love and confidence towards the subject.
  • We arrange Workshops on “Mathematical Reasoning “ and “Quantitative Aptitude “ to guide students for various competitive examinations.
  • We take remedial classes.
  • We have a Question Bank in the department.

Long Term Goals

  • To enhance the mind set towards research and creation of new knowledge
  • To create innovations in the field of Mathematics

Short Term Goals

  • To design special short term course and to conduct programmes so as to make our students employable and entrepreneur
  • To make our students efficient for higher studies and work beyond the syllabus
  • To promote Research Works in Mathematics and Statistics
