Overview
The special degree offers students a great opportunity to assess the concepts of mathematics. The department has also introduced a practical component to most of the Mathematics course units with the students having access to a well-equipped computer laboratory. The special degree students are required to undergo industrial training for a fixed duration, which will open them an exposure to the world of Mathematics outside the academia. Further, the special degree students can choose their final year projects from the areas such as Algebra, Analysis, Numerical Analysis, Discrete Mathematics, Computer Applications, Mathematical Modeling and Statistics. They can even choose to solve an existing problem of national importance. Improvement of presentation skill of students is targeted through some of the courses.
