Objectives of the Program
Critical Thinking
Take informed actions after identifying the assumptions that frame our thinking and actions, checking out the degree to which these assumptions are accurate and valid, and looking at our ideas and decisions (intellectual, organizational, and personal) from different perspectives.
Problem Solving
Solve problems from the disciplines of concern using the knowledge, skills, and attitudes acquired from mathematics/ sciences/social sciences/humanities.
Effective Communication
Speak, read, write, and listen clearly in person and through electronic media in English and in one Indian language, and make meaning of the world by connecting people, ideas, books, media, and technology.
Individual and Team Work
Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader in diverse teams, and in a wide variety of settings.
Ethics
Understand multiple value systems, including your own, the moral dimensions of your decisions, and accept responsibility for them.
Self-directed and life-long learning
Demonstrate the ability to engage in independent and life-long learning in the broadest context of socio-technological changes.
Design/Development of Solutions
Design solutions for complex science problems and design system components or processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the public health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
Aesthetic Engagement
Demonstrate and master the ability to engage with the arts and draw meaning and value from artistic expression that integrates the intuitive dimensions of participation in the arts with broader social, cultural, and theoretical frameworks.
Programme Specific Outcomes (PSOs)
Rational Thinking
Students can formulate and develop Mathematical arguments logically to unravel the gist hidden in the problem at hand.
Problem-solving ability
Students should be able to think critically to process the data and develop Mathematical problem-solving ability.
Revisiting the question
Students should be able to recall basic facts, important milestones, discoveries in Mathematics, and inculcate a habit of rational thinking by which the problem at hand can be revisited, time and again, which helps in solving it
Analytical Ability
In the growing field of research, students must learn to use some packages like MATLAB, Skylab, Mathematica, Maxima, etc, so that analytical tools are available to investigate the functions and problems through graphs, programming,etc.
Numerical Ability
Using packages, students can make programs to solve some problems for which exact solutions are not available, using tools of Numerical analysis.
Simulation Ability
The problems that cannot be solved directly can, at times, be solved through techniques of simulation by honors/research students.
Research
Students thus motivated would prepare themselves for research studies in Mathematics and related fields.
Application
Students will be able to apply their skills and knowledge in Mathematics to various fields of study, science, engineering, commerce, and management, etc.
