About Department of Mathematics and Scientific Computing
The Department of Mathematics and Scientific Computing attained its present status of an independent department on 22nd June, 2019. Prior to this department was constituent part of Applied Science Department, established in 1962. The department is committed to impart the effective teaching and quality research work in different areas of Mathematics and Scientific Computing.
Courses Offered by the Department:
- M.Sc. Mathematics (Specialization in Computing)
- Ph.D. in Mathematics
Besides this, department also offer various courses of Mathematics to Undergraduate and Postgraduate students of different Engineering, Science and management Departments of the university.
The faculty members of the department have expertise across areas of both pure and applied mathematics, such as Modern Algebra, Ring Theory, Operations Research, Inventory Control, Graph Theory, Numerical Analysis, Differential Equations, Special Functions and Mathematical Modelling. They have studied or worked at leading institutions across the India, and their research is published in journals of high international repute. With 10 (01 Professor, 03 Associate Professor, 06 Assistant Professor) sanctioned post of faculty members, the Department is well-placed to offer a variety of courses and activities.
