Department Of Applied Mathematics At The University Of Dhaka Provides A Dynamic And Engaging Graduate Training Environment That Is Especially Strong In Developing Advanced Computational Methods. The Department Currently Consists Of 11 Faculty Members. Among Them There Are 5 Professors, 1 Associate Professor, 3 Assistant Professors And 2 Lecturers. All Of Them Are Actively Involved In Research Of D
ifferent Areas Of Applied Mathematics. The Major Area Of Research Includes:
Fluid Mechanics:
Fluid Mechanics Is One Of The Most Important Branch Of Applied Mathematics. In This Branch A Number Of Articles Have Been Published Each Ear In The National And International Journals. This Year (2010-2011) And In The Previous Year (2009-2010) Two Faculties From This Department Have Been Awarded The Prestigious Dean’s Award From The Faculty Of Science. The Area Including Newtonian And Non-Newtonian Fluids For Industrial Applications, Magnetohydrodynamics, Aerodynamics, Mathematical Hydrology, Bio-Fluid Mechanics, Nano-Fluids, Computational Fluid Mechanics And More. Level Have Been Doing Their Research In Fluid Mechanics. Numerical Methods:
Another Important Area Of Applied Mathematics Is The Study Of Various Numerical Methods And Techniques Because Of The Application In All Other Branches Of Physical And Scientific Computations. Both M.Phil And Ph.D Research Have Been Conducting In This Field. Theory Of Relativity And Cosmology:
Theory Of Relativity Is One Of The Main Research Area In Mathematics And Physics. Cosmology Is Also Now A Very Important Field For Research In Modern Mathematical Physics In The Applied Mathematics Over The World. This Field Of Research (M. D) Contributes Significant Results In Physical Sciences. Riemannian Geometry And Tensor Analysis:
Riemannian Geometry Is An Important Area For Mathematical Research Especially For M. Phil And Ph.D Studies In Applied Mathematics. Modern Differential Geometry Now Generalizes Riemannian Geometry. At Present Many Students Are Doing Their Research In This Field And Contributing Their Valuable Results In Mathematical Physics And Engineering. Financial Mathematics:
This Branch Of Applied Mathematics Is A Very Recent Area Of Research. Very Few Number Of Universities In The World Have Been Conducting Class Room Teaching And Research In This Area. The Department Of Applied Mathematics Of The University Of Dhaka Is Going To Initiate Class Room Teaching As Well As Research Is This Field. The Department Of Applied Mathematics Will Also Open Actuarial Science And Meteorology Very Soon Which Are Important Areas Of Research Due To Their Applications In National And Multinational Financial Institutions And Weather Forecast Respectively.
