Masters Programme in Mathematics
Course Objective:
The M.Sc. course in Mathematics aims at developing mathematical
ability in students with acute and abstract reasoning. The course will enable
students to cultivate a mathematicians habit of thought and reasoning and will
enlighten students with mathematical ideas relevant for oneself and for the
course itself.
Course Design:
Masters in Mathematics is a two years programme spreading over four
semesters. In the first two semesters focus is on the basic papers in
mathematics such as Algebra, Analysis and Number Theory along with the
basic applied paper ordinary and partial differential equations. In the third and
fourth semester focus is on the special papers, elective paper and skill-based
papers including Topology, Functional Analysis, Advanced Fluid Mechanics,
Advanced Graph Theory and Numerical Methods for solving differential
equations. Important feature of the curriculum is that one paper on the topic
Fluid Mechanics and Graph Theory is offered in each semester with a project on
these topic in the fourth semester, which will help the students to pursue the
higher studies in these topics. Special importance is given to Teaching
Technology and Research Methodology in Mathematics, Mathematical
Statistics and Introduction to Mathematical Packages, which are offered as
certificate courses.
Methodology:
We offer this course through Lectures, Seminars, Workshops, Group
Discussion and talks by experts.
Admission procedure:
Candidates who have secured at least 50% of marks in Mathematics in
their bachelor degree examination are eligible to apply. The candidates will
then appear for subject interview.

Paper : PROJECT Code : MTH451
The objective of this paper is to develop positive attitude, knowledge and competence
for the research in Mathematics. Through this project students will develop analytical and
computational skills. Students are exposed to the mathematical softwares like Mathematica,
Scilab and Matlab. Students are given with their choice of topic either on Fluid Mechanics or
Graph theory or can select any other topic from other fields with the approval of HOD /
Coordinator. Each candidate will work under the supervision of the faculty. Coordinator will
allot the supervisor for each candidate in consultation with the HOD at the end of third
semester.
Project need not be based on original research work. Project could be based on the
review of advanced text book or advanced research papers.
Each candidate has to submit a dissertation on the project topic followed by viva voce
examination. The viva voce will be conducted by the committee constituted by the head of
the department which will have an external and an internal examiner. The student must secure
50% of the marks to pass the project examination. The candidates who fail must redo the
project as per the university regulation.

Internship in PG Mathematics course
Semester: III
Code: MTH371
Objectives:
To expose students to the field of their professional interest
To give an opportunity to get practical experience of the field of their interest
To strengthen the curriculum based on internship feedback where relevant
To help student choose their career through practical experience
Level of Knowledge: Working knowledge of Mathematics
M.Sc. Mathematics students have the option to undertake an internship of not less than 45
working days at any of the following: reputed research centres, recognized educational
institutions, summer research fellowships, programmes like M.T.T.S. or any other approved
by the P.G. coordinator and H.O.D.
The internship is to be undertaken at the end of second semester (during first year
vacation). The report submission and the presentation on the report will be held during the
third semester and the credits will appear in the mark sheet of third semester.
The students will have to give an internship proposal with the following details:
Organization where the student proposes to do the internship, reasons for the choice, nature
of internship, period on internship, relevant permission letters, if available, name of the
mentor in the organization, email, telephone and mobile numbers of the person in the
organization with whom Christ University could communicate matters related to internship.
Typed proposals will have to be given at least one month before the end of the second
semester.
The coordinator of the programme in consultation with the HOD will assign faculty
members from the department as guides at least two weeks before the end of second
semester.
The students will have to be in touch with the guides during the internship period either
through personal meetings, over the phone or through email.
At the place of internship, students are advised to be in constant touch with their mentors.
At the end of the required period of internship, the candidates will submit a report in not
less than 750 words. The report should be submitted within first 10 days of the reopening of
the University for the third semester.
Within 20 days from the day of reopening, the department must hold a presentation by the
students. During the presentation the guide or a nominee of the guide should be present and
be one of the evaluators. Students should preferably be encouraged to make a power point
presentation of their report. A minimum of 10 minutes should be given for each of the
presenter. The maximum limit is left to the discretion of the evaluation committee. Students
will get 2 credits on successful completion of internship.
