Mathematics does not usually form part of the UGC NET subject list since this subject comes under the domain of the CSIR NET (Council of Scientific & Industrial Research - National Eligibility Test). The CSIR NET is a specifically held test on the subject of sciences along with Mathematical Sciences, Chemical Sciences, Earth Sciences, Life Sciences and Physical Sciences. UGC NET on the other hand is principally subjects on Humanities, Social Sciences, Languages, Commerce and other non-science subjects and are targeted to be eligible as Assistant Professor and Junior Research Fellowship in the respective subjects.
