DEPART MENT OF MAT HEMAT ICS

Since its inception in 1951, the Department has been contributing richly to teaching and research in Mathematics and Statistics.
However, over the past few decades due to rapid growth of Computer Science as an area of Mathematical Sciences, the department
has been focusing its attention to Computer Science as well. At present, the Department offers a five-year integrated M.Sc. course in
Mathematics and Computing, a two-year M.Sc course in Mathematics, a five-year integrated M.Sc. course in Statistics and Informatics,
a two-year M.Sc. course in Statistics and Informatics, and a two-year MTech course in Computer Science and Data Processing. The
Department also offers Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science subjects to students of other departments. The department has an
excellent computing environment in its own Computer laboratories which are equipped with Sun Fire V250 Server connected with Sun
Ray 100 Thin client, SGI 02 Work station, IBM RS6000 Server, VXL Terminal Server and several Pentium machines. All these systems
are connected to other computing facilities in the Institute through Internet via VSAT. For further information about the department, one
may visit its website www.webmath.iitkgp.ernet.in

The MTech programme in Computer Science and Data Processing has been running successfully since 1983. The programme gives an
opportunity to students, who have not specialized in Computer Science at degree level but have adequate foundations in Mathematics or
Electronics, to specialize in Computer Science. The programme aims to produce software professionals who can design and develop
systems and applications software, maintain available systems efficiently, and can adapt themselves to research and developments in
the rapidly changing field of Computer Science. It is expected that students joining this course should be acquainted with at least one
high-level programming language. The Department offers MTech degree in:
