Dr S. Chandankumar is an Associate Professor of Mathematics and Statistics at M. S. Ramaiah University of Applied Sciences from Nov 2019. Joined as Assistant Professor of Mathematics, RUAS in 2014, in his early days at university he was involved in designing curriculum for undergraduate and postgraduate programmes alongside preparing lecture notes for various courses. He got promoted to Associate Professor on 1-1-2021. His research work is focused on discovering new modular equations and theta-functions identities most of them are influenced by Srinivasa Ramanujan. Right now he is working on theory of partitions. He has taught various courses in Mathematics to undergraduate and graduate students of Science and Engineering. He received B. Sc. from Bangalore University and M. Sc. Mathematics from Bangalore University. Soon after completing masters, Chandankumar worked as Project Fellow for a Major Research Project sanctioned by UGC at Department of Mathematics, Bangalore University for three years from 2009. Alongside working for the project he pursued his doctoral studies at Bangalore University and got his degree in 2013. He has published over 30 research articles which are indexed in MATHSCINET, SCOPUS and SCI Journals and also presented more than a dozen research articles in national and international Conferences. He has also been invited as resource person for faculty development programs and workshops. In 2021, he was one amongst the 11 faculty members across the university awarded as exemplary faculty under teaching category announced by RUAS. Dr Chandankumar has experience in administration as Head, Assistant Custodian, Deputy Custodian, BOS Member and BOE Member. Apart from faculty level, he has also worked as member in various committees viz., CO-PO Mapping Sub-committee, Examination Lapses Malpractice Enquiry Committee - (AY-21-22),1 Committee for Basics Reviewing for screening Ph. D. students, Committee for Implimenting NEP at RUAS. Besides enjoying teaching and research he also counsels students and constantly works on various pedagogical methods in teaching. In his free time he enjoys playing cricket, reading novels, exploring nature through hiking and sky watching.
