PROGRATtrDIE PROJECT REPORT (PPR)

L. Programme's Mission and Objectives :

i. Mission

' B. Sc Mathematics prograulme involves basic studies ofthe subjects lying a strong foundation which would supportemployability as well as backgound for higher studies. AIso thisprogramme provides a good measure of flexibility and choice asper interest. Therefore, a significant increase of interest inMathematics has been grown among different disciplines as wellas other areas of life in recent past. With ftat spfuit in mind andkeeping the mission that to foster the analytical skills among thestudents, so that they develop the traits of being potentiallyemployable in their career, the School of Distance Education,University of Calicut, started under graduate Mathematics course.

ii. Objectives

> To attain proficiency in identifying, reflecting, evaluating,and applying different types of in-formation and knowledgeto form independent judgment.

> To provide better understanding of basic nrles of logic andenable the students to articulate the differences betweeninductive and deductive ieasoning.

> To provide proficiency in formulating conjectures byabstacting general principles from examples.

> To enable the students to formglate and solve abstractmathematical problems.

2

To enable the students to apply mathematical methodologies

in real-world problems.

To enable the students to present Mathematics clearly and

precisely to an audience, and to describe mathematical ideas

from multiple perspectives.

Relevance of the program with IIEI's Mission and Goals:

' The B. Sc Mathematics course has great relevance with the

Mission and Goal set by the University of Calicut. The primary aim ofthis programme is to acquaint the learners with the core values of life.After B. Sc Mathematics, the students shall be in a position to pursue

higher studies, depending upon their competence and knowledge inMathematics. The programme will also help the leamers to keep abreast

with the latest developments in Mathematics from national and

intemational stand points.

The objective of program is to produce graduates who are well grounded

in the fundamentals of Mathematics and acquisition of the necessary

skills, in order to use their knowledge in Mathematics in a wide range ofpractical application, develop creative thinking and the power ofimagination to enable graduates work in research in academia and

industry for broader application, accommodate their relevant fields inallied disciplines and to allow the gaduates of Mathematics to fit into the

inter-disciplinary environment.

Nature of prospective target group of learners:

The B. Sc Mathematics programme is in demand for large

number of human resource in various fields' This programme has been

welcomed by those who missed the opporufty for higher science

education. As per the needs of the leamers; the university has prepared

course curriculum of this progamme.

The prospective target goup of learners are :-

. Workingprofessionals

. Unemployed graduates

. Academic faculty

. Home makers

Appropriateness of programme to be conducted in Open andDistance Learuing mode to acquire specific skills and competence :

B. Sc Mathematics progamme will meet the learningaspiration for Mathematics by providing a chance to those who had todiscontinue their formal education or could not join regular colleges orUniversities owing to social, economic, and other constaints. It is 3 yearsprogramme. In the first two years, focus is on the basic papers inMathematics such as Foundations of Mathematics, Calculus, CalculusandAnalytic geomefy, and Theory of equations, matrices and vectorcalculus. In the third year, focus is on the skill-based papers includingAbstract algebra, Differential equations, Real analysii, -omplex anal"ysis,Numerical methods, Number theory an Linear algebra wtrlctr witt tretpthe students to prusue the higher studies in these topics.

_ Besides imparting theoretical knowledge, the Universityprovides the oppornrnity to the human resource, basically to those whoare financially backward and rural people to get a quality education inMathematics, which can fr:lfill the demand of the society.
