Initially started in 1967-68, as Allied paper to support
the then -PUC(pre-university class). Mathematics as a Major degree wasstarted in
1970,under the dynamic headship ofDr.C.P.Parvathy, Ph.D, who steered the department
to dazzling heights in a short span of time, with the department proclaiming itself
to be the only one to offer maximum number of allied courses, for Physics, Chemistry,Computer
Science and Statistics multaneously. Success was proved again subsequently,through
the
establiment of the degree programme under self financing category
in 1991 to cater the extraordinary
demand for the course. Emergence of a post graduate programme was initiated and
was started in 2004. The odyssey of the department of mathematics still continues
awaiting to scale new peaks. At present there are totally 181 students in Aided
stream and 203 students in Self-Supporting stream.
