VISION AND MISSION
Vision

To develop innovative and human engineers by imparting mathematical proficiency to address scientific and engineering challenges.


Mission

To provide an environment where students can learn and become competent users of mathematics and its applications. Mould students with value based education to improve their intrinsic standards.

Scope

The scope of mathematics has no boundaries. This subject teaches us to be good problem solvers. The progress of science, technology and engineering is focused on three important steps namely, description of the observed fact, prediction of future behaviour and understanding of natural phenomena; this is also based on observational and experimental evidence. Nevertheless, prediction, description and understanding are currently accomplished via mathematics tools and models. Mathematics is the backbone of all sciences.
