Program Description

This program, B.Tech. in Mathematics and Computing, is designed as a combination of topics taken from three different streams namely, Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science. Graduates of this program will emerge with a deep theoretical knowledge and a strong practical training in mathematical, statistical and computer related aspects. During 5th 7th semesters, students can select Open Electives from various departments across the institute, and Program Electives from the Department of Mathematics. The program offers Minor Specializations focussed on contemporary themes such as Information Management and Analytics, Business Management, Finance and Security Analytics, Health Care Analytics besides the principal courses of advanced Mathematics. Meritorious students with CGPA 8.5 and above at the end of the 5^th semester can also opt for B.Tech. Hons.

Focus

Due to the increasing need for engineers with stronger base in Mathematics and Statistics, the focus of this course is set on the following objectives. Industrial oriented subjects like Computational Linear Algebra, Time Series Analysis, Multivariate Analysis, Data Structures, Scientific Computing, Machine Learning and Optimization, makes the graduates ready for the industry. A strong base in classical subjects like Real Analysis, Algebraic Structures, Theory of Automata, Mathematical Logic, Artificial Intelligence and Applied Graph Theory, will make the students ready to take up research programs in reputed institutes either in India or abroad. Inclusion of topics based on Analytics and Information Systems such as Coding Theory, Mathematics for Finance, Game Theory and Statistical Decisions, Algorithms, Advanced Programming and Cryptography, will make the students ready for jobs in reputed analytic sectors.
