ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT:

The Department of Mathematics was started in the year 1981 with the idea of propagating mathematical education at undergraduate level. Initially Mathematics was started as one of the general subjects as per the courses and curriculum of the Gauhati University. The Department was equipped with only one teacher at this juncture, however, now, the Department has a strength of four dedicated faculty members out of which two are Ph.D degree holders. Since 1994, the Department has been offering honours course to a maximum of 25 number of students (selected after conducting a test or in the basis of their performance in the last examination) in the first year TDC classes. As per guideline of Gauhati University, the Department introduced CBCS course in the Semester system with effect from the year 2019. The Department’s progress is significant and very much encouraging. The Department is known for its successful results and it has produced toppers. The departmental library has a rich collection of over 500 hard and E-books apart from the collections of central library. The Department has introduced computer facility in the department itself and in the computer laboratory.
