Department of Mathematics, HBTU, Kanpur

The Department of Mathematics has been striving hard for excellent teaching and research in Mathematical Sciences since its inception in 1961. The undergraduate and postgraduate students of various chemical technology and engineering departments are emical technology and engineering departments are enriched/equipped with in-depth theoretical background of sophisticated applied mathematics required for modern scientific investigations and technological developments and practical training in numerical computing by following need-based designed curriculum. The Department runs a doctoral research programme for carrying out research in inter-disciplinary areas. The faculty of the department are actively engaged in research in emerging thrust areas viz. mathematical modeling, ecological and environmental systems, mathematical biology, biomechanics, fluid mechanics of the eye and cerebrospinal fluid, blood flow dynamics etc. Facilities for interdepartmental and interdisciplinary research activities have also been evolved. The Department is well equipped with computing and internet facilities. A number of research projects sponsored by different organizations like CSIR, CST UP, UGC, DST and ICMR have been completed. Also, various conferences, seminars, workshops, summer and winter schools have been organized by the department. Apart from this, the faculty members of the department also regularly visit to deliver lectures in conferences and seminars outside. The experienced and dedicated team of faculty members have presented/ published good numbers of research papers. Nearly 66 students have been awarded Ph.D. degrees under the supervision of departmental faculty members and at present 07 students are registered for Ph.D. Programme. To produce excellent academicians/researchers in Mathematics for teaching/research in interdisciplinary applied thrust areas and to equip budding technocrats/ engineers with sound mathematical/computing skills for social welfare. To impart mathematical education in order to explore and apply mathematical concepts for technological innovations through activities and experimentation. To train students with strong mathematical foundation for conducting research or for serving in industry. To inculcate the ability to apply mathematical and computational skills in students for modeling, formulation and solving real-life problems. ...view more
