From the HOD's Desk

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

 

Greeting from the Department of Mathematics S.F.

 

    Mathematics is the queen of science and the language of nature. Science, technology and engineering cannot thrive without a solid mathematical foundation. It develops our reasoning, helps us to have an analytical thinking, quickens our mind, generates practicality and also its use can be applied in the day to day life. The department of Mathematics [S.F] provides need-based programmes like Analysis, Algebra, Graph theory, Operation Research and Differential Equations etc. so that the students can enter into the research field with strong foundation and can appear for the state and central level eligibility examinations and competitive examinations with confidence.


Dr. S. Kavitha M.Sc., M.Phil., SET, Ph.D.
