BS Math (4 Years)

Introduction

BS Mathematics has been designed after consulting syllabi of national and international universities. BS Mathematics program will strengthen the mathematical concepts of the candidate and will enhance their logical thinking. This program caters the needs of information Technology and other sciences disciplines.

To meet the challenging requirements of today’s fast growing world, the department of Mathematics has planned to launch BS Mathematics Program. The BS degree is deemed equivalent to MSc Mathematics. BS degree holders are being preferred throughout the world as their knowledge is more focused on Mathematics. Our BS Mathematics program will produce well trained, highly numerate and computer literate graduates.

OBJECTIVES

After completing this program, students will acquire the necessary knowledge based in the area of Mathematics. The overall objective of this program is

    1. To enhance the qualification of those who could not continue their education after F. Sc. through formal universities.
    1. To provide an opportunity to in service persons to improve their qualification and get promotion in their respective departments.
    1. To provide in-depth understanding of Mathematics and apply them in real life projects.
    1. To produce quality teacher/researchers of Mathematics at all levels.

There are three types of BS-Mathematics program being offered depending upon their eligibility criteria and duration of the program.

Eligibility Criteria

Candidate must have FSc/HSSC certificate in HSSC with major Mathematics or equivalent exams approved/verified by Inter Board Committee of Chairmen (IBCC).

Selection Process

On Merit. All eligible candidates will appear for interview before the Departmental Admission Committee (DAC)
