• Bridge Course: The Department conducts bridge course for all newly admitted students of honours and elective course. The objective of the Bridge course is to make a smooth transition for students from 10+2 level to undergraduate level and to provide adequate foundation in the core of the subject.
• Problem-based learning: Students work in groups to solve complex, multifaceted, and realistic problems, researching and learning necessary background material as needed.
• Random Calling: Teacher informs the class that students will be selected at random to respond to a question.  Then, teacher poses the question to the class, and remain silent for tens of seconds to allow everyone to think through an answer.  After a sufficient pause, teacher selects a student at random to share thoughts about the answer. Then, teacher calls on another student at random to comment on the first student’s response.
• Departmental Library: In addition to central Library, a departmental library is functioning in the department catering to the needs of faculty and students with a seating capacity of 06. The library is stocked with 150+ books which cover the syllabus of Undergraduate course in Mathematics as well as competitive examinations such as GATE, JAM. The objective of departmental library is to promote the use of reference books among the students. 
• Student seminar: Seminars by students are organized as part of the curriculum which helps them to improve their presentation skills and confidence level. There is a practice of delivering lectures on some important topics by senior students for other students as a Peer Group Learning program.

Mathematics is a subject that is quite different from others - both in terms of difficulty and in terms of usage. The ultimate goal of mathematics is to understand the material presented, applying the skills, and recalling the concepts. There is a list of concepts revolving around multiple formulas that help to solve different problem sets in different ways. Therefore, it is imperative to understand the material rather than memorizing the procedures of mathematics.
Mathematics is a subject that requires constant practice and revision. If this is not done, students tend to forget the concepts. Some students find it interesting while others find it difficult. This is because of the strategies applied by the teacher regarding how to teach mathematics. As it is such a different subject, the teachers have to apply different set of strategies while teaching mathematics.
Teaching methods of mathematics include lecture, problem-solving, inductive, deductive, analytic and heuristic methods. Teacher adopts the methods according to the needs and interests of students. In addition to Chalk and Talk, teachers use ICT enabled tools to make teaching-learning process more effective. The department has a dedicated computer laboratory equipped with 23 desktops which are used to train the students. Besides this, department take following steps to encourage the students:

•  Conduct bridge courses for first year students to recapitulate the topics studied in 10+2 standard and get prepared to learn topics at undergraduate level.
•  Inspire to read reference books and advanced study materials
•  Assign home-work with different type of questions & project related to their syllabus
•  Arrange remedial classes beyond class hours 
•  Organize Add on Course on C-language & Sage-Math
•  1:1 counseling by the departmental teachers to sort out the weakness of students
•  Meet with guardians once in each academic session
• Motivate about career in mathematics
• Free internet access for all Honours students

•  Guidance is provided to students as per their requirement to prepare for entrance/ competitive examinations leading to admission in reputed institutes/ seeking jobs in government and corporate sector.
•  Students are motivated to take part and win prizes in competitions held at other colleges.
•  Counseling sessions are arranged to overcome learning disabilities, if any, and to provide them an exposer to find ways to chase their dreams.

The Department in association with external expert from software industry conducts a thirty-hour course on “C Programming: Mathematical Computing & Beyond” for students on annual basis. The objective of the course is to give a thorough training on various the concepts of C and provide an exposure to its applications in different Mathematical computations and real-life scenario.
