Department of Mathematics
Mathematics plays a key role in the development of modern sciences, engineering, management and many other important areas of activities. The vision of the department is to be a centre of excellence in teaching and research in basic and applied areas of Mathematics. Besides catering to the basic needs of the various B. Tech. / M. Tech. programs of the Institute, the department offers its own M. Sc. programme which is designed to enable students for achieving their career goals in the field of academics, research and industries. The role and usage of mathematics have increased manifold in the last decade with the setting in of information revolution which has resulted in substantial changes in several other disciplines also. This has put additional expectations on the department from the point of view of teaching, research and applications. Skills in computational mathematics are needed more than ever before. Keeping this in mind, a number of new courses (core as well as elective) have been designed and introduced at graduate, post graduate and Ph. D. levels.
The department of Mathematics has a strong fervour towards research and development from the very beginning. The field of mathematics however is constantly evolving to the ever changing need and challenges of its practitioners. Therefore, we also need to update ourselves continuously through research work, workshops, faculty development programs, guest lectures and conferences. Efforts are being made for the convergence of Mathematics with other disciplines by introducing courses of interdisciplinary nature such as Wavelets, Finite Element Methods, Image and Signal Processing etc. The Department has a good blend of pure and applied Mathematics which provides a vibrant research atmosphere. The Ph. D. programme of the department incorporates this.
THRUST AREAS OF THE DEPARTMENT
- The faculty members of the Department are involved in the following three research groups:
- Fractals & Chaos and Mathematical Analysis
- Numerical Analysis and Computational Continuum Mechanics
- Statistics, Fuzzy, Information Theory and Operations Research
PUBLICATION SUMMARY
The strength of any department is measured by the research output of the faculty/students, and in what journals they publish in, and are cited in, or Journal Citation Reports, which measures value and impact of high-quality refereed journals.

ANNUAL CONFERENCE
The Department of Mathematics organizes an annual international conference on “Recent Advances in Mathematical Sciences and its Applications (RAMSA)” with prime objectives of bringing together learned mathematicians, scientists, engineers, researchers, from academia and industries working in the diverse areas of mathematics.
This will present a common platform for exchange of ideas regarding the research findings and new advances in the diverse areas of mathematics, sciences and engineering and the solutions adopted thereto. It also gives an opportunity to enhance collaboration among researchers from India and abroad working on similar areas.
The scientific program including Keynote, plenary lectures and parallel contributed presentation will be able to enthuse the interest of the participants in the emerging areas involving vibrant implicational aspects of applied mathematics in relation to engineering and sciences.
All the past conferences were supported/partially funded by government agencies such as Science & Engineering Research Board (SERB) and Defence Research Development Organization (DRDO).
