Welcome to Jagannath University Mathematics Department

 

We welcome to the students from various parts of our countries including the countries in every parts of the world. This department will provide you an excellent academic environments & we believe that this will give you a wonderful time and an exciting challenge.

A SHORT HISTORY:

The Department of Mathematics Of Jagannath University really owe  to Babu Kishori Lal Roy Chowdhury & Jagannah Roy Chowdhury, the benevolent Educationists & Founder of this old educational institution for higher education in Old Dhaka.

The Department of Mathematics of Jagannath University started its journey on 1 August 1968 with the wide range of vision initially with B.Sc. (pass) courses. After liberation this department expanded its course activities to undergraduate & graduate levels. In 1973-1974, it offered B.Sc (Honors), Masters (Preliminary), M.Sc (Final) Courses in 1989 & M.Sc (Thesis) works in 2000. Distinguished Mathematicians from various fields of mathematics like Prof. Shukendra Chandra Ghosh (1^st Chair), Prof. Kamaruzzaman, Prof. Md. Iman Ali, Prof. Md. Sharfuddin Reja Hai, Prof. A.K.M. Manjurul Huq, Prof. A.F.M. Khodadad Khan, Prof. Md. Shamsul huq Mollah, Prof. Md. Tofazzal Hossain, Prof. Parbin Sultana Chowdhury, Prof. Dr. Nirmal Kanti Mitra, Prof. Dr. Fazlur Rahman, Prof. Md. Dewan Abdul Kuddus etc. worked as the Head of the Department & contrubuted this department during 1968 to 2005. The department is really proud of having the aboved mentioned mathematicians during their long academic period whose efforts & contribution enriched the department in nation building.

After converting Jagannath College to as a full fledged University on 20 October 2005, this department started its course curriculum as Semester System & now running with this system in full sweing.

VISION:

The vision of the Department of Mathematics is to be a centre of excellence for improving the quality of Mathematics education in Bangladesh. This Department, in pursuance of the vision of the Jagannath University of Bangladesh, commits itself to the achievement of academic excellence in the fields of Pure & Applied Mathematics. It offers Bachelors, Masters, M.Phil and Ph.D level degrees in said the fields. Programs in the Department of Mathematics are designed to broaden students' perspectives and to help them realize their full potential. Course offerings in mathematics (pure and applied) for teachers. A student may concentrate in one area or combine coursework from several areas.

MISSION:

The mission of this Department is to make a significant contribution to the improvement of the quality of Mathematics education in Bangladesh:

• through the professional development of Mathematics teachers
• by building research capacity in Mathematics education
• through the development of professional Mathematics education researchers and academics

In order to achieve its vision, the Department of Mathematics seeks to:

• offer training in the development of mathematical skills, knowledge and insights in a way that is accessible to the Bangladeshi community.
• conduct relevant research and deliver academic services at the same level of internationally accepted best practice.
• recruit, develop, utilize and retain high caliber, motivated and dedicated staffs.
• engage in research projects that promote the cultural heritage of Bangladesh and the eradication of poverty, discrimination and mathematical illiteracy.

ACADEMIC CITIZENSHIP:

• Teaching and communicating mathematics to the widest possible area of the Bangladeshi society.
• Providing academic services to the scientific community both nationally and internationally.
• Supporting mathematics education in Science, Engineering and Technology in all its aspects.
• Increasing mathematics access to Higher Education.

RESEARCH:

• Conducting research at a level on par with international standards.
• Engaging in theoretical, experimental and reflective research.

MATH LAB

We have a well equipped air conditioned modern Math Lab with about 40 high configured computers.The main purpose of this Lab is to give students an understanding modern mathematics using Mathematica & FORTRAN Programming Language. Especially enable students to use computer to solve analytically a variety of mathematical problems including algebraic equations, differentiation, integration, differential equations, matrix manipulation, series expansions , limits, various problems in Linear Algebra, Geometry, Numerical Analysis etc. and represent mathematical functions graphically to produce mathematical reports.

On the other hand, practical work mainly comprises the writing of computer programs.The programs have to be developed on suitable computers using prescribed computer packages.

MATH SEMINAR

We have a well furnished Math Seminar with about 3000 undergraduate & graduate books of mathematics (pure & applied), some reported journals, mathematics encyclopedia etc. The students may concentrate to their group studies in the seminar room & they can borrow their reference books, journals etc. from the seminar. Soon this seminar will be decorated as world class standard when it will be shifted in the new building.

MATHEMATICS RESEARCH AREA

• Pure Mathematics
• Applied Mathematics

 

RESEARCHERS:

1. Analysis of Chaotic Dynamical Systems & Topology, Functional Analysis

Dr. Payer Ahmed, Prof. Dr.Shinzo Kawamura(1), Prof. Dr. Minoru Sasaki

Department of Mathematics, Jagannath University, Department of Mathematical Science(1), Department of Physics(2), Yamagata University, Japan.

The main focus of our research is Analysis of Chaotic Dynamical Systems with a special focus on one dimensional dynamical systems. Our attention is restricted to continuous map on the compact subspace of the real line. We show a lot of chaotic maps on those continuous maps. We then turned our attention to chaotic maps & Banach Lattice.

Current Interest: Computer Simulations of Chaotic Behavior as well as Transient Thermoelectric Effects (TTE) in Quantum Solid State Physics.

2. Authors: Differential & Calculus, Differential Eqn., Mechanics, Methods of applied Mathematics

Prof. Abu Yousuf, Department of Mathematics, Jagannath University

3. Numerical Scheme for the Boltzmann Equation Based on a Hexagonal Discrete Velocity Model in 3D real space.

Md. Mizanor Rahman (2), Dr. Layek Sazzad Endella

Department of Mathematics, Jagannath University, Depart of Mathematics, Jahangirnagar University

The Department offers: MSc, M.Phill and PhD degrees in Mathematics which enable students who have a mathematics  background to carry out research into some aspect of improving the lea rning and teaching of their subject
