Department of Mathematics

Overview:


DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS

The Department of Mathematics was established in the year 1979. The department has 8 faculty members constituting one Professor, one Associate Professor, four Assistant Professor, one senior Lecturer and one Lecturers. Six faculties hold the doctorate degree and 1 is pursuing, hence providing excellent teaching in Mathematics. The department has always shared the vision of the Institute in striving for excellence in teaching and research activities and has succeeded in this endeavor to a large extent. All faculty members have been upgrading their knowledge by attending workshops, seminars, FDP and conferences regularly. The Department has a vibrant research atmosphere backed by excellent infrastructural facilities. Faculties have published 7 research papers in National and 80 research papers International Journals and conferences. The department has conducted 3 special lecture for students of second year and 1 FDP on “Geogebra” for department Faculty. Two faculties are involved In inter-disciplinary projects.
The academic ambience and student teacher relationship is cordial. The department encourages the students to participate in extracurricular activities like Innovative Idea presentation, Poster presentation, Seminars on recent development in Engineering with Mathematical applications, preplanned events for Science day celebration, Inter-college competition ‘Math-hunt’ at annual Cultural-Technical fest ‘Insignia’ etc.,
The Visveswaraiya Technological University, Belgaum has recognized Department of Mathematics as a Research Centre in the year 2002. Five faculty members have been recognized as research guides. Totally 16 research scholars have registered for Ph.D of which 5 are awarded.
