Mathematics is a diverse field and finds its applications in various disciplines of sciences, engineering and technical domains. The Department of Mathematics, was established at the inception of the Institution with a vision to build the base and create a solid foundation of engineering courses. The Department of Mathematics serves as the ancillary department to the Institute of Technology. It plays a diverse yet very unique and distinctive role because of its talented faculty pool. The department strives to churn the students to be active analytical thinkers and problem solvers so that they can contribute positively to the world in which they live and learn. The department endeavours to stimulate and augment the student’s knowledge of analytical, logic and problem solving thereby endowing them with skills to become proficient engineers. The department offers courses at undergraduate, and doctoral levels. Three levels of courses are administered; core courses, discipline-specific applied mathematics and open electives courses. The department also handholds lateral entry students by offering bridge courses. The department also offers a Minor in Applied Mathematics to all B Tech students. The department offers a Doctoral program in Mathematics.
The department has highly qualified, dedicated and experienced faculty members involved in an active and ideal teaching-learning process. Student engagement is always achieved through content/ pedagogy and innovative assessment. To ensure the active learning each course offered by the Department has either Tutorial or Laboratory sessions. Various pedagogical tools are used for the effective teaching-learning process namely such as active learning, ICT-based learning, Flipped Classroom, Muddiest Point etc., which gives conceptual clarity and engage the students to make learning effective.
The department regularly conducts pedagogy sessions to enhance the teaching and learning process. Besides teaching, faculty members are published authors and are actively involved in research activities.
