About Us

 

"Mathematics is the most beautiful and most powerful creation of the human spirit"-Stefan Banach.

Welcome to the Department of Mathematics, NIT DURGAPUR. Mathematics is an essential ingredient for teaching of engineering and science. Presently, the department is involved in teaching three mathematics courses to all the disciplines of undergraduate students and various elective courses are also offered to them. Also, in addition to a two-year M.Sc. programme in Mathematics and a Ph.D. programme, the department participates in a multidisciplinary M.Tech in Operations Research programme with the Department of Management Studies and the Department of Computer Science & Engineering. The broad range of mathematical research topics we cover include algebra, analysis, differential equations, applied mathematics, theoretical physics and computational sciences.

To impart training to students with a view to create competent and motivated academicians, the department always tries to inculcate human values, and encourages independent thinking among the students for the benefit of the society.

The department is deeply involved in teaching and research. By means of publishing quality research articles, delivering lectures and collaborating with reputed national and international Institutes/ Universities we share the knowledge and transfer it to the academics and industrial sectors. Highly motivated young researchers with good academic and research background are encouraged for the faculty position in the Department.

 

Mission

  • To create an ambiance in which state-of-the-art undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral programmes will flourish.
  • To identify different industrial problems through industry- academia interaction and to undertake collaborative projects for long term development.
  • To design the curriculum keeping with the trend of expanding knowledge of Mathematics and to nurture students so that they can establish themselves not just at highest level of academic achievements but also as good human beings.

 

Vision

  • To establish itself as a department teaching Mathematics at par with other premier institutes of our country.
  • To contribute to research at a level of international excellence.
