c) Flexible entry and exit options with UG certificates, UG diplomas, or Bachelor degrees depending
on the number of credits earned,
d) Flexibility for students to switch between institutions so they can engage in multi- and/or
interdisciplinary learning,
e) Flexibility to switch to alternative modes of learning,
f) Knowledge required for self-employment initiatives and entrepreneurship mindset,
g) Ability for complex critical thinking and real-life problem solving,
h) Capability to understand global issues, multicultural competence and digital literacy,
i) Capable on research skills, communication skills, community based engagement, environment
awareness, responsibility and accountability.

AIM
The UG Programme in mathematics is designed to teach students how to think critically, logically, and
analytically, which enables them to employ mathematical reasoning in real-world situations. A UG degree
in mathematics will expose students to a variety of intriguing and practical concepts that will help them in
their preparation for a variety of mathematics-oriented jobs in industry, government, business, commerce,
finance and research. The program covers broad range of topics on pure and applied mathematics. Also
covers hands-on sessions in Computer Lab using various software, MATLAB, Mathematica, C etc. which
enables students to correlate and compare with recent developments in various branches of mathematics
in a variety of organizations worldwide. The programme aims to increase students' skill in maths as well
as other cross-disciplinary subjects like commerce, physics, computer sciences, economics, and statistics
etc. By choosing papers from the MDGEC, AEC, SEC, VAC, YOGA, EE, DTS, DSE, Community based
engagement etc., they are able to apply the skills they have learned to situations that happen in the real
world. Also aims students' flexibility to move from one discipline to another, to move one institution to
another, to switch alternative modes of learning.

estimations, and regression.

Teaching Learning Process:

The outcome-based approach demands a considerable transition from teacher centric to learner centric
pedagogies, as well as from passive to active/participatory pedagogies, especially in the context of
undergraduate study. This course promotes the systematic and sequential acquisition of knowledge and

self-study materials; project, internship, exploring industrial needs and other research activities and so on.

Assessment Methods:
A variety of assessment procedures appropriate for the Mathematics discipline will be used to determine
how well students are progressing keeping in view of the course/program learning outcomes. Continuous
evaluation will decide the final grade which include both in-semester evaluation and the final exam.
Insemester evaluation will consist of class exams, mid-term exams, homework assignments, etc. as
determined by the concerned teacher of the course of study. The following techniques will be used to
evaluate how successfully students are meeting their goals: tutorials, timed exams, problem-based
assignments, lab reports for practical assignments, observations of practical skills, individual project
reports, team project reports, oral presentations, including seminar presentations, viva voce interviews,
group discussions, quiz and so on.
