Exposure to Mathematics equips students with emerging requirements for today's world including learning essential computer skills besides developing an analytic approach to real world problems. A student of honours course in mathematics is gradually trained in such logical and mathematical techniques that they have access to rewarding career opportunities in numerous sectors. With this very aim, the semester based syllabi of B. Sc. (Honours) Mathematics gain the necessary insight in diverse mathematical disciplines like algebra, analysis, mathematical modelling using differential equations, mathematical programming and statistics. A lot of emphasis is given to 'hands-on' exposure to modern software such as Mathematica, R, LaTeX and HTML through practicals.
The Department of Mathematics of Mata Sundri College was established in 1978. It comprises of highly qualified and dedicated faculty members specialized in diverse areas such as Operational research, algebraic coding theory, algebra, analysis, mechanics etc.
The Department also has an annual e-magazine. Each issue of our E-Magazine- ‘Anantya: Beyond Infinity’ is a milestone that marks our growth, unfolds our imaginations and gives life to our thoughts and aspirations. So far, the department has come out with 2 issues of this e-magazine. It is a combined effort of our Department Society- ‘Asymptote’, dedicated teachers and hardworking students. It unleashes a wide spectrum of creative skills and deep knowledge of subject and aims at participation of students ranging from writing to editing and even in designing the magazine.
The students are required to attend not less than 67% of the lectures, theory and practicum courses, separately during each semester in order to enable them to appear for university examinations.
A continuous process of internal assessment takes place during each semester that includes theory as well as practicum courses. The assessing procedures usually include written assignments, projects, house exams and presentations. Final examinations are held in the months of November and May.
It is mandatory for a student to secure minimum 40% marks in each theory paper during final examinations, 40% in the internal assessment, 40% in all Practicum courses taken together and 40% in the aggregate for each semester, to pass the examination.
