BSc Mathematics
Program Overview
The aim of the course is to develop Mathematical skills among the students and make them expert Mathematicians. Mathematics subjects are always studied in combinations at the Bachelor level. The course trains the students with in-depth knowledge of Geometry, Trigonometry, Calculus and other theories. The course also explores related topics like Computer Science and Statistics.
The course emphasizes the theory and practical aspects of the Fundamentals of Mathematics and includes theory and concepts of counting, structure, probability, permutations and Combinations, Calculations, Measurement, the study of shapes and Motions.
The students will have diverse knowledge about the multiple branches of Mathematics including Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Geometry and Accountancy.
Problem Solving, Critical Thinking, Analytical Thinking and Logical Skills are enhanced through this course. This subject has multiple opportunities in Research and Technology.
After completing B.Sc Mathematics, the students can join to Master’s degree in Mathematics. After completing their Master’s degree they can go for further research programmes like Ph.D in Mathematics. Pursuing advanced courses will help students to build a career in Teaching and Research. The students can join MBA, PGDM, PG Diploma in Banking, Actuarial Science courses, IIT, NIT etc.
