Nanak Chand Anglo Sanskrit College Meerut Ph.D Mathematics: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. Popular research areas in the Mathematics department at NAS College include Real and Complex Analysis, Abstract Algebra and Group Theory, Topology, Differential Equations (Ordinary and Partial), Fluid Dynamics and Magnetohydrodynamics, Operations Research and Optimization, Numerical Analysis, Graph Theory, and Mathematical Modelling. Scholars should discuss their specific research interest with potential supervisors before applying.

Ans. Both CSIR-NET (Mathematical Sciences) and UGC-NET (Mathematical Sciences) are accepted for exemption from CCSURET. CSIR-NET is generally considered more prestigious for pure science research and provides JRF fellowship from CSIR. UGC-NET JRF is also equally valid. Candidates should appear for both to maximise their chances of qualifying with JRF rank.

Ans. PhD in Mathematics from NAS College (CCSU) opens doors to careers as Assistant Professor/Associate Professor in colleges and universities, research positions in DRDO, ISRO, BARC, and other government research organisations, data science and analytics roles in the private sector, and positions in financial modelling and actuarial science. The degree is recognised by UGC and is valid for academic and research positions across India.

Ans. The Department of Mathematics at NAS College has experienced faculty members, several of whom hold Doctorate degrees and are recognised PhD supervisors under CCSU. Prospective scholars should contact the department directly to check supervisor availability and research areas, as CCSU norms limit the number of scholars per supervisor (typically 8 at any given time).

Ans. Generally, PhD in Mathematics requires M.Sc in Mathematics as the qualifying degree. Students with M.Sc in Statistics or Computer Science may not be directly eligible unless their degree is considered equivalent to M.Sc Mathematics by CCSU. Such candidates should check with the CCSU admission office or the department before applying.

Ans. As per UGC Regulations 2016, all PhD scholars must complete mandatory course work covering Research Methodology, Computer Applications, and subject-specific advanced mathematics courses. The course work is typically of one semester duration and is evaluated through examinations and assignments. Scholars must secure a minimum of 55% marks in course work to proceed with their research.
