The aim of the course:
to introduce Non-Euclidean Geometry.
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : meet a Geometry different from Euclidean geometry2,31,3,
PO - 2 : learn area, length concepts in the Non-Euclidean geometry2,31,3,
PO - 3 : use the models of upper half plane and unit disk in hyperbolic geometry2,31,3,
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), PO : Learning Outcome
