B.Sc. Mathematics : Programme Outcome, Programme Specific Outcome and Course
Outcome
Mathematics is the study of quantity, structure, space and change, focusing on problem
solving, with wider scope of application in science, engineering, technology, social sciences etc.
The key core areas of study in Mathematics include Algebra, Analysis (Real & Complex),
Differential Equations, Geometry, and Mechanics. The Bachelor’s Degree B.Sc. Mathematics is
awarded to the students on the basis of knowledge, understanding, skills, attitudes, values and
academic achievements expected to be acquired by learners at the end of the Programme.
Learning outcomes of Mathematics are aimed at facilitating the learners to acquire these
attributes, keeping in view of their preferences and aspirations for gaining knowledge of
Mathematics.
Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics is the culmination of in-depth knowledge of algebra,
calculus, geometry, differential equations and several other branches of Mathematics. This also
leads to study of related areas like Computer science, Financial Mathematics, Statistics and many
more. Thus, this programme helps learners in building a solid foundation for higher studies in
Mathematics. The skills and knowledge gained have intrinsic aesthetics leading to proficiency in
analytical reasoning. This can be utilised in Mathematical modelling and solving real life
problems.
Students completing this programme will be able to present Mathematics clearly and
precisely, make abstract ideas precise by formulating them in the language of Mathematics,
describe Mathematical ideas from multiple perspectives and explain fundamental concepts of
Mathematics to non-Mathematicians.
Completion of this programme will also enable the learners to join teaching profession,
enhance their employability for government jobs, jobs in banking, insurance and investment
sectors, data analyst jobs and jobs in various other public and private enterprises.
