B. Sc. in Mathematics

Program Details

The B. Sc. Mathematics program offered by UPES School of Advanced Engineering is a comprehensive 3-year course falling under the Applied Science Cluster. It provides students with a flexible and dynamic curriculum, aligned with the NEP 2020 framework, enabling them to customize their education according to their individual interests and career aspirations. The program is divided into 8 semesters, and each semester encompasses courses worth a maximum of 20 credits.

One of the key highlights of this program is the provision of multiple exit and entry options. After completing 40 credits in a year, students have the option to exit with a certificate in the respective discipline. Similarly, after earning 80 credits in two years, students can choose to take an exit with a diploma. Furthermore, those who accumulate 120 credits in three years are eligible to receive a UG degree in the given discipline. The program culminates in the fourth year, where students have the opportunity to earn a B. Sc., depending on their preferences and choices.

As part of the program, students will also have the option to specialize in Data Science & Computational Mathematics through electives and additional courses. In the final year, students will undergo research-specific courses to prepare for their dissertations. Moreover, the program allows for lateral entry, adhering to the NEP 2020 regulations, which enables students to join the course at a later stage if they have prior qualifying credits. An additional benefit is that after completing the 3-year UG degree, students can directly pursue a PhD with coursework both in India and abroad, opening up further avenues for advanced research and academic pursuits.
