Mathematics is the queen of all sciences therefore importance of mathematics in any curriculum is self evident. This is the single science which is being used by all other disciplines, that is why its growth over the years has been phenomenal. In view of this, Mathematics was one of the earliest subjects, which was introduced in this University when teaching departments were established in 1969. Only the M.Phil. program was introduced in the beginning but later, the idea being to produce system analysts, designers, researchers rather than mere programmers M.Sc./M.A. also started.
