Department Profile Name of the Department: Department of Mathematics 1) From the Desk of Head in 200 words The Department of Mathematics was established in year 1964. Dr. K. Nirmala was the first head of the department. Initially it started M.Sc. M.Phil. and Ph.D. programs. In 2008 the department started a unique course M.Sc. Tech in Mathematics. The main objective of this course was to meet the requirements of IT industry. The department is having its own building along with modern infrastructure like Library, Computer Lab, smart boards and Wi Fi connection. There are 8 faculty members actively engaged in the teaching, research and extension activities. Department has been offering courses in Pure and Applied Mathematics for many years. The current topics of interest in the Department are Discrete Mathematics, Dynamical System, Differential Equations, Classical Mechanics, Fluid Dynamics. Right from the inception of the department teachers were actively engaged in the research. Many of them have completed major and minor research projects funded by UGC. The present teaching faculties are also having research projects funded by DST, SERB, CSIR, NBHM. All the faculty members are having research publications in the reputed National and international journals. The department is organizing Conferences, workshops and short-term training programs regularly. In the last five years the department has organized two national conferences and two workshops of one-week duration for Teaching faculties and students. Department is having active NSS unit since 2016 and every year this unit conducts Blood donation camp, tree plantation, campus cleaning program and so on. The department has made the continuous progress since its inception. 2) Brief History of the department along with present focus in academic & research – 150 words. The Department of Mathematics started functioning in the year 1964. The lecturing were initially held in Gokhale College. Prof. K. Nirmala was the first Head of the Department. The other staff member were Prof. Waghmare, Prof. T. H. Date, Prof. Tagare, Prof. K. K .Deshpande and Prof. Murdeshwar contributed to the department at the initial stage. The lectures were held in the University campus from 1967-68. In 1982 the Department was shifted to the present building. Prof. L. Radhakrishna (1969-1975, 1984-1996), Prof. B. R. Bhonsle (1975-1977), Prof. R. K. Saxena (1978-1984), Prof. G. G. Asgekar (1996-1997, 2000-2001), Prof. H. V. Kumbhojkar (a first batch student) (1997-2000), Prof. M. S. Chaudhary (2001-2004, 2007-2009), Prof. (Mrs.) Y. S. Pawar (2004-2007, 2010), Dr. L. N. Katkar (2010-2013, 2016-2017), Prof.(Mrs.) S. H. Thakar (2013-2016, 2017- till the date) have been the Heads of the Department. Since 2009, the Department has started new M.Sc Tech course of 3 years duration. The Department has produced more than 85 Ph.D and 105 M.Phil students. The Department has organized several training programs, workshops, seminars, student carnival and conferences. Eminent mathematicians such as Jayant Naralikar, Dr. Ahuja, S. S. Abhyankar, Abhay Ashtekar have visited the Department. The Department has NBHM funded Library consisting 4563 books. 3) Vision: The vision of the Department is to be a premier institute of higher learning and research in Mathematics at National and International levels. 4) Mission: To prepare excellent academicians and software developers to cater for the needs of academic institutes and industries. 5) Core Values of the Departments.
