What you study?

Mathematics, from ancient times, has served as a model for rational thinking and is used extensively in all sciences. Of late, efforts are made to construct a new foundational basis for mathematics. In the post-graduate course, mathematics is studied, not only from the theoretical stand point, but in the direction of applicability in various fields serving the scientific and technical needs. A remarkable amount of practical mathematics are developed which will provide a route to high quality careers in finance and industry. There is now a fair amount of stress in the inter-disciplinary studies such as statistics, commerce, econometrics and computing, especially soft computing and programme skills.
