Course Overview

About MSc in Mathematics Course

Built around Mathematics, MSc in Mathematics is a 2-year on-campus programme covering physical laws, chemical behaviour and quantitative reasoning in 4 planned semesters.

Each semester pairs Mathematics theory with instrumentation and measurement labs, problem-solving tutorials and statistical and computational exercises. On completion you receive MSc from MIT University Sikkim.

Why students choose MSc in Mathematics

  • A single clear subject focus: Mathematics, studied properly for 2 years rather than spread thin.
  • Practical work every semester — instrumentation and measurement labs, problem-solving tutorials and statistical and computational exercises — so you can show what you can do, not only what you studied.
  • Subject choices that stay relevant: Mathematics: Advanced Theory & Practice, Mathematics: Applied / Industry Track and Mathematics: Research & Analytics Track.
  • A degree from a UGC-recognised state private university, valid for employment and for further study.
  • Small campus, direct access to faculty, and daily classroom support at Namchi, Sikkim.

What you will be able to do

  • Model a problem mathematically and solve it in the context of Mathematics.
  • Run experiments and analyse measurement error in the context of Mathematics.
  • Use statistical and computational tools in the context of Mathematics.
  • Present quantitative findings clearly in the context of Mathematics.
  • Complete an independent Mathematics dissertation from question to final defence.
