Its aim is to impart such knowledge as will facilitate the application of mathematical precepts to real life situations and help in problem solving. It also aims to use technology as a significant aid in learning and to impart knowledge of some basic concepts and principles of the disciplines. In addition, it will establish inter-disciplinarity between mathematics and other subjects from Humanities and the Social Sciences.
