Initially started in 1967-68, as Allied paper to support then – PUC(pre-university class). Mathematics as a Major degree wasstarted in 1970, under the dynamic headship ofDr.C.P.Parvathy, Ph.D, who steered the department to dazzling heights in a short span of time, with the department proclaiming itself to be the only one to offer maximum number of allied courses, for Physics, Chemistry, Computer Science and Statistics simultaneously. Success was proved again subsequently,through the establiment of the degree programme under self supporting category in 1991 to cater the extraordinary demand for the course. Emergence of a post graduate programme was initiated and was started in 2004. The odyssey of the department of mathematics still continues awaiting to scale new peaks. At present there are totally 204 students in Aided stream and 167 students in Under graduate course and 73 students in Post graduate course in Self-Supporting.
