The department's inaugural head, Prof. S.Sivaraman, was a distinguished mathematician renowned for his modest lifestyle. Under his visionary leadership, the department established a robust foundation for academic excellence in mathematics. In August 1982, the department expanded its offerings by commencing an undergraduate course affiliated with the University of Calicut. The inaugural batch consisted of 24 students, all boys.
