As a Chairman, I welcome you to the Department of Mathematics along with my colleagues. Housed in ‘Gopalganj-8100’ the birthplace of father of nation ‘Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’, the department has 15 full time faculty at present, who hold teaching/instructor/ research positions and about 280 graduate and undergraduate students. Mathematics is one of a core department among five pioneer departments of the Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Science and Technology University (BSMRSTU) since its first academic year in 2011, and the department continues to play an important role in the research, teaching, and outreach missions of the university.
Faculty have been honored by many national and international awards including MEXT scholarships, The A F Mujibur Rahman Foundation Gold medal Award, Bangabandhu Fellowships, elected as a fellow of Ministry of National Science, Information and Communication Technology and so on. Both our undergraduate [Four years integrated degree of B.Sc. (Honors)] and graduate programs (M.Sc. in Applied Mathematics) continue to progress. The Department has been offered at least 150 credits to B.Sc. programs and 36 credits or more to M.Sc. programs in every academic session. To ensure the significant aim of academic activities, we are producing highly skilled graduates in the field of pure and applied mathematics so that they can select from a diverse collection of mathematics courses that reflect both theory and lab courses in the department. Beyond the classroom experience, undergraduates have a variety of opportunities to participate in mathematical research, Olympiad, industrial tour, tutoring from graduate students and faculty, as well as training for the prestigious Mathematical competition or workshops.
The department also takes seriously its mission to improve both awareness of mathematics and mathematics training in the BSMRSTU community. As a part of academic curriculum and professional aspects, the department allows research project and thesis which involve in various relevant research fields such as mathematical modeling in physics and biology, applied numerical analysis, fluid dynamics, wavelet analysis, signal and image processing, coastal remote sensing, nonlinear partial differential equations, quantum algebra, and topological analysis. It is obviously true that enhanced concepts of mathematical tools (programming coding, simulation, and computation) make an effective researcher in the respective field. To reach such aimed, our talented, innovative, and energetic faculty are taking part in research collaboration with national and international organization in the field of pure and applied mathematics, physical science, computer science and civil, mechanical, chemical, aerospace engineering and so on.
This is almost complete scenario of what is going on in the department, and I cordially invite you to learn and visit more about what is happening in the department.
