DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS

Initially started in 1967-68, as Allied paper to support the then - PUC(pre-university class). Mathematics as a Major degree wasstarted in 1970, under the dynamic headship ofDr.C.P.Parvathy, Ph.D, who steered the department to dazzling heights in a short span of time, with the department proclaiming itself to be the only one to offer maximum number of allied courses, for Physics, Chemistry, Computer Science and Statistics simultaneously. Success was proved again subsequently,through the establiment of the degree programme under self financing category in 1991 to cater the extraordinary demand for the course. Emergence of a post graduate programme was initiated and was started in 2004. The odyssey of the department of mathematics still continues awaiting to scale new peaks. At present there are totally 181 students in Aided stream and 203 students in Self-Supporting stream.

Courses Offered:

·         UG B.Sc. Mathematics under Aided and Self-Supporting streams

·         PG M.Sc. Applicable Mathematics under Self-Supporting stream

·         Ph.D.Part-time

           The  Department  of Mathematics was established in the year 1991 with the  introduction of the undergraduate course  (B.Sc) in Mathematics . The post graduate degree  programme  M.Sc. Applicable Mathematics was started in the year 2004  to cater to the needs of  Teaching , Research  and Industrial applications.

 Curriculum has been structured to enable the students to experience  the  practical applications and implications of Mathematics  in various spheres of life.

 Internship is a part of the curriculum at the End of Second Semester during  April-May.
