Department of Mathematics was established in 1956 and over the years has evolved into a Department with a healthy balance between pure and applied mathematics. The Department has a vibrant research atmosphere backed up by excellent infrastructural facilities. We have a modern computer laboratory and a good Departmental library. Members of our faculty have won many honours in recognition of their academic achievements.

The Department admits students under two programmes - the Ph.D. programme and the integrated Ph.D. programme. Further information can be found by following the links on the home page. In the current economic scenario, employment opportunities for Ph.D.'s in mathematics are excellent - both in academics and in industry.

The Department has pioneered interdisciplinary programmes like the IISc Mathematics Initiative. It takes active part in the Indo-French Cyber University project with Toulouse University Network. The Department is also deeply involved in the Kishore Vaigyanik Protsahan Yojana and the Mathematical Olympiad programme.
