Department of Mathematics

About the Department

The department of Mathematics, which was started in 1966, has grown over the years from strength to strength striving to produce young women with the quest for mathematical knowledge, logical and analytical thinking. In a period of nearly five decades of its existence, the department has reached its culmination – a Research department. The Post Graduate course in Mathematics was started in 1999, M.Phil in 2007 and Ph.D in 2010. Due to the increasing demand, a second section of B.Sc. Mathematics was started in 2009.
