The TIFR Centre for Applicable Mathematics is part of the School of Mathematics of the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research.[1]

The centre originated from the school's efforts since the mid-1970s to develop areas in applicable mathematics.

Research and consulting

At the centre, research at advanced level[

which?] is currently[when?] pursued in both theoretical and numerical aspects of differential equations, especially the following subtopics:[1]

The centre offers consulting at the individual and institutional levels in applying theory to engineering-related problems and in exposition of underlying mathematics.[1]

Education and programs

The centre has had an active role in training students in areas of applicable mathematics through the IISc-TIFR Joint Programme. Following the deemed university status of TIFR, the TIFR Centre has offered its own programs since 2004, which are:[1]

  • Ph.D.
  • Integrated Ph.D. (M.Sc. and Ph.D.)[1]

Among its other doctoral programs, the center has an integrated PhD program in mathematics.[4][unreliable source?] Eligible students for this program receive a monthly fellowship of Rs 21000 for the first year.[4][unreliable source?].[5]

The centre has a program to invite visiting professors, both for disseminating new topics through lecture courses and for research collaboration.[1]

The centre also offers

post-doctoral fellowships and possibilities of short-term visits.[1]

Notable people

In September 2015, together with Ritabrata Munshi (from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research), K. Sandeep (from the TIFR Centre for Applied Mathematics) obtained the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize for Science and Technology in the field of mathematical sciences.[6]

In January 2019, the
