Mathematics:
Algebra; Basic operations, expansion, factorization, quadratic equations, indices, logarithms, progressions, binomial theorem, permutations and combinationss.
Calculus: Functions, limits, continuity, differentiability mean value theorems, maxima and minima, Taylor's series, integral calculus, total derivatives and Lagrange multipliers.
Differential Equations: First-order differential equations, linear differential equations with constant coefficients and homogeneous linear differential equations.
Probability: Probability theory, dependent and independent events, distributions, measures of dispersion, random variables, mathematical expectations and standard distributions like Binomial, Poisson and Normal.
Numerical Methods: Solutions of algebraic and transcendental equations, iteration methods, Newton-Raphson method, solutions of linear algebraic equations, numerical differentiation and integration, and solutions of differential equations.
Computer Awareness:
Data Structures: Arrays, stacks, queues, linked lists, sorting and searching techniques, trees, graphs, and traversal methods.
Programming in C: Data types, declarations, expressions, operators, control statements, functions, recursion, and storage classes.
Database Management Systems: DBMS architecture, data models, ER model, normalization, relational model concepts, SQL, data storage, indexing and query processing.
Operating Systems: Process management, CPU scheduling, synchronization, deadlock, memory management, virtual memory, file organisation and I/O devices.
Computer Networks: Network models, OSI model, physical layer concepts, data link layer protocols, network layer addressing and routing, and presentation layer functions.
