Introduction

The classical mathematics provides foundations for analysis of key principles behind modern and emergent technologies, modern mathematics coupled with computational capabilities is opening new avenues for further explorations. M.Sc. (Mathematics) Program at IIT Jodhpur aims at tapping these opportunities by developing workforce specialized in mathematics needed for developing key technologies. The proposed four semester program strives to provide balance between analysis and application of Mathematics. The compulsory courses provide the basic understanding and foundation of mathematics enhancing analytic capabilities of the students. Students can further explore their area of interest with program and open elective courses. The project component spread over last two semesters provides research exposure to the students and provides an opportunity to apply their mathematical skills to solve real-life problems. Students are encouraged to undertake research Summer Internships in Institute of repute, Industry and R&D organizations.
