The department recommends exceptionally bright students for the MTTS programme (Mathematics Training and Talent Search). Alumni interactions, Career Guidance guest lectures, Seminars are organized to generate interest in the subject.
Individual assignments, presentations, projects, class assignments are some of the teaching learning methods used for continuous internal evaluation of the students. Study material is shared with the students online in MS Teams. Mathematical Softwares like GeoGebra, Desmos, etc are used to explain concepts. In addition to the core courses, other relevant courses based on Mathematics through portals like Spoken Tutorial, Swayam, etc are offered to the students for earning extra credits.
As a part of the Institutional co-curricular festival, the department encourages students to participate in interesting events like poster competition, math treasure hunt, quizzes, puzzles,etc. The purpose of these events is to take students beyond books and classrooms and generate interest in the subject.
