The department offers a two-year M.Sc. Mathematics programme. The program allows you to choose from a variety of elective courses together with the compulsory ones. Performance of students each semester is continuously assessed through regular quizzes, class tests, and mid- and end-semester examinations. In addition to the usual course work also involves pursuing an optional one-year research project during the second year. Depending on the area of mathematics that interests you most, you can choose your supervisor for your optional research project.

The curriculum can be found here.
