Overview

The department of Mathematics, ever since its inception in 1980, has been in the forefront to provide quality education in the field of higher mathematics. The department was able to achieve this goal with the combined and devoted efforts of all its members. The inter collegiate quiz competition, started in 1988, by the department was a major step towards fulfilling our goal in this direction and we are the pioneer among a dozen colleges in Mahatma Gandhi University to have such competitions. Due to the strong foundation laid to it by the founder Head of the Department Prof. T.M. Joseph the department has been able to secure a name among its stake holders as one of the best departments of the Mahatma Gandhi University.

Many students who can easily get admission in various other aided institutions are opting this centre for their post graduate studies shows its reputation. Due to the Government policies, presently the Postgraduate course is functioning as a separate department.
