Program Description: Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) in Mathematics
Faculty: Faculty of Science
Duration: 4 Years (8 Semesters)
Total Credit Hours: 160
CGPA Range: Highest 4.00 – Lowest 2.00
Program Type: Outcome-Based Undergraduate Science Program
Overview
The Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) in Mathematics program at Mawlana Bhashani Science and Technology University (MBSTU) is designed to equip students with a strong foundation in both pure and applied mathematics. The program emphasizes logical reasoning, abstract thinking, problem-solving, and analytical skills — essential for scientific innovation and technological advancement.
Spanning four academic years and divided into eight semesters totaling 160 credit hours, the program covers a broad range of mathematical disciplines, including algebra, analysis, geometry, statistics, operations research, and computational mathematics. The curriculum is balanced with both theoretical and practical components to ensure graduates are prepared for academic, industrial, and research-oriented careers.
Program Objectives
The primary objectives of the B.Sc. in Mathematics program are to:
- Provide a solid understanding of fundamental mathematical concepts and advanced analytical techniques.
- Develop problem-solving, modeling, and computational skills applicable to real-world and interdisciplinary contexts.
- Foster logical reasoning, abstract thinking, and the ability to apply mathematics in science, engineering, and economics.
- Introduce students to the use of modern computational tools, algorithms, and programming in mathematical analysis.
- Prepare graduates for academic, research, and professional careers in education, data science, industry, and technology sectors.
Program Structure and Curriculum
The Mathematics curriculum includes around 35–38 core and supporting courses, covering theoretical, applied, and computational domains.
Core Areas Include:
- Algebra, Calculus, and Real Analysis
- Differential Equations and Complex Analysis
- Linear Algebra and Numerical Methods
- Probability and Statistics
- Topology and Geometry
- Operations Research and Optimization
- Mathematical Modeling and Computational Mathematics
Supporting Courses Include:
- Physics and Computer Programming
- Statistics and Data Analysis
- English Communication and Scientific Writing
- Research Methodology and Ethics
In the final year, students must complete a research project or thesis, allowing them to explore a chosen mathematical topic, develop analytical depth, and gain experience in independent research.
Assessment and Evaluation
Student performance is assessed through a combination of continuous and final evaluations to ensure both conceptual understanding and analytical ability.
- Theoretical Courses:
- 30% Continuous Assessment (10% Attendance, 20% Quiz/Class Test/Assignment/Presentation)
- 70% Final Examination
- Practical/Computational Courses:
- 50% Continuous Assessment (15% Attendance, 15% Lab/Assignment Work, 20% Quiz/Project)
- 50% Final Evaluation (40% Practical Test, 10% Viva-Voce)
A minimum CGPA of 2.00 (out of 4.00) is required for graduation.
Admission Requirements
Admission to the B.Sc. in Mathematics program follows the GST (General, Science & Technology) cluster system or other criteria approved by the university. Candidates must have a science background at both SSC and HSC (or equivalent) levels and meet the minimum eligibility requirements set by MBSTU for the respective academic year.
Career Opportunities
Graduates of the B.Sc. in Mathematics program are prepared for a wide range of academic and professional careers, including:
- Teaching and Higher Education
- Data Science, Statistics, and Computational Analysis
- Banking, Finance, and Actuarial Services
- Research and Development in Applied Mathematics and Computing
- Operations Research, Optimization, and Industrial Planning
Mathematics graduates are also highly sought after in the fields of software development, artificial intelligence, and quantitative research, and are well-qualified for postgraduate studies (M.Sc., M.Phil., or Ph.D.) in Mathematics or related disciplines both in Bangladesh and abroad.
