Course Overview

The B.Sc. Mathematics programme is a three-year undergraduate degree designed to provide a strong foundation in mathematical theory, structure and computation. The course develops problem-solving skills, abstract reasoning and analytical ability that are applicable across science, technology and economics.

Students are exposed to a wide spectrum of mathematical concepts ranging from Algebra, Calculus, and Geometry to Statistics, Mechanics and Operations Research. The course also integrates computer-based mathematical modeling and real-world problem-solving exercises to enhance understanding and application.

This programme prepares students for postgraduate studies, research, teaching and analytical careers in both academic and industrial environments.

About the Curriculum

The curriculum follows the Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) prescribed by Bharathiar University, combining theoretical depth with computational practice.

Core areas of study include:

• Classical Algebra & Trigonometry.

• Analytical Geometry & Differential Calculus.

• Integral Calculus & Differential Equations.

• Real Analysis & Complex Analysis

• Abstract Algebra & Linear Algebra.

• Numerical Methods & Operations Research.

• Mechanics, Probability & Statistics.

• Mathematical Programming & Optimization.

• Allied Papers: Physics, Computer Science, or Statistics (as per stream).

The curriculum encourages continuous assessment, project work, and computer-aided learning through software like MATLAB, GeoGebra, and MS Excel to integrate mathematical theory with application.

About the Lab / Language Resource Centre

The department maintains a well-equipped Mathematics Computer Lab that facilitates computational and numerical learning. The lab is furnished with modern computers and licensed software for Mathematical Modeling, Data Analysis and Statistical Simulations.

Students use tools like MATLAB, Python, GeoGebra and Excel for solving equations, graph plotting, and analyzing data. Regular practical sessions and workshops are conducted to strengthen numerical and programming skills.
