In the education system across the globe, there is one constant subject, a language that is universally spoken: Mathematics. The department of Mathematics was established in 1964. Initially, Mathematics was offered as one of the Discipline subjects in B.A.(Programme). Later on, B.Sc.(Hons.) Mathematics was introduced in the year 2006 by sincere efforts of Dr. Seema Khurana.
Our Vision and Mission
The Department of Mathematics aims at providing proficient knowledge of Mathematics among students, thereby invoking creative minds to excel in all spheres of life. The department is committed to inculcate mathematical skills and critical thinking in young minds so that they can make contributions to the betterment of the community.
Programs Offered
At present, the department offers B.Sc.(Hons.) Mathematics to the students of all streams under UGCF-2022 based on NEP 2020. Besides the honours course, it is offered as a Discipline course in B.A. (Prog.) and General Elective course for other B.A.(Hons.) and B.Sc. (Hons.) courses. The department also offers various courses like SEC (Skill Enhancement Courses) and VAC (Value Addition Courses) as part of the UGCF-2022.
Student Activities and Initiatives
“Affine”, the Mathematics association, organizes various lectures by eminent professors throughout the year. An inter-college annual festival “Shoonya” is organized wherein several competitions related to Mathematics are held. In addition to it, the annual newsletter/magazine “Mathpunch” is launched, which brings forth the creative talent of the students.
To motivate the students to excel in academics, the college awards Proficiency Prizes (for securing highest marks in each year), Silver Jubilee Merit Scholarship (for securing I, II or III rank at university level in Ist or IInd year) and Teachers Memorial Prize (for securing I, II or III rank at university level, all three years combined). Apart from this, students can also apply for various scholarships such as NBHM scholarship, Inspire program etc. during or after their B.Sc. or M.Sc. Course in Mathematics.
