The National Board for Higher Mathematics (NBHM) was set up by the Government
of India under the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), in the year 1983, to foster the
development of higher mathematics in the country, to formulate policies for the
development of mathematics, help in the establishment and development of mathematical
centres and give financial assistance to research projects and to doctoral and postdoctoral
scholars. The NBHM functions essentially autonomously framing its own budget taking
into account the funds made available by DAE.
The objectives of the board are: to promote the growth of higher mathematics in the
country; and to coordinate activities for the development of mathematics.
The functions of the NBHM are:





To continuously evolve and implement policies and programmes for the
development of mathematics in the country;
To help in the establishment and development of mathematical centres;
To give financial assistance to research projects and to doctoral and postdoctoral
scholars;
To assess the nature and extent of mathematical inputs necessary in applications and
to suggest steps for training adequate personnel specially in areas where
sophisticated
mathematics is involved; and
To determine the funds required for these activities and to administer these funds
through suitable machinery set up for this purpose.
The headquarters of the NBHM are at Mumbai. The NBHM is reconstituted every three
years.
The current office address is National Board for Higher Mathematics, Department of
Atomic Energy, Anushakti Bhavan, CSM Marg, Mumbai 400 001.
The NBHM usually meets twice a year, to discuss its programmes and various proposals
received from board members as well as from mathematicians all over the country. It has
six sub-committees; viz. the Research Programmes Committee, the University Programmes
Committee, the Olympiad Programmes Committee, Nurture Programmes Committee,
Examinations Committee and Library Grants Committee. They consider, throughout the
year, proposals, essentially for financial support for varied mathematical activities, from
institutions and individuals. Decisions of the NBHM are based on the recommendations of
these committees. The responsibilities of various committees are described in Annexure I.
The NBHM normally provides financial support only to Indian nationals and
institutions. Currently the NBHM grants postdoctoral fellowships, Ph. D. scholarships,
M.A. / M.Sc. scholarships for research / education in mathematics The NBHM provides
financial support to the Mathematics Olympiad activity, run in collaboration with the Homi
Bhabha Centre for Science Education, for students at the junior college / high school level.

14. MATHEMATICS OLYMPIAD
Mathematics Olympiad activity is run in collaboration with the Homi Bhabha Centre for
Science Education, Mumbai. It has been one of the NBHM's major initiatives since 1986.
One main purpose of this activity is to support mathematical talent among high school
students in the country. The NBHM has taken on the responsibility for selecting and
training the Indian team for participation in the International Olympiad every year. While
the NBHM coordinates and supports Olympiad contests all over the country, regional
bodies, mostly voluntary, play an important role in different stages. For the purpose of
administering Olympiad contests, the country has been divided in 16 regions. A regional
coordinator is responsible for conducting these tests in each region. The names of the
regions and their respective regional coordinators are given in Annexure VIII.
General Information about Olympiad Contests:
The Olympiad Programme leading to India's participation in the International Mathematical
Olympiad consists of the following stages:
Stage 1: Regional Mathematics Olympiad (RMO)
RMO is held normally between September and the first Sunday of December each year in
different regions in the country. The regional coordinator ensures that at least one centre is
provided in each district of his region. All school students of Class XI are eligible to appear
for RMO. The regional coordinators may on their discretion, admit students of lower
classes also. RMO is a 3-hour written test containing about 6 to 7 problems. Each regional
coordinator has the freedom to prepare hisher own question paper or obtain the question
paper from the NBHM. The regions opting for the NBHM question paper hold this contest
on the 1st Sunday of December. On the basis of the performance in RMO, a certain number
of students from each region are selected to appear for the second stage. Regional
coordinators charge nominal fees to meet the expenses for organising the contests.
7
Stage 2: Indian National Mathematics Olympiad (INMO)
INMO is held on the first Sunday of February each year at various Centres in different
regions. Only students selected on the basis of RMO from different regions are eligible to
appear for INMO. INMO is a 4-hour written test. The question paper is set centrally and is
common throughout the country. The top 30-35 performers in INMO receive a Certificate
of Merit.
Stage 3: International Mathematics Olympiad Training Camp (IMOTC)
The INMO Certificate awardees are invited to a month long Training Camp (Junior Batch)
conducted in May-June, each year. In addition, INMO awardees of the previous year that
have satisfactorily gone through postal tuition throughout the year are invited again for a
second round of training (Senior Batch).
Stage 4: International Mathematics Olympiad (IMO)
The team selected at the end of the Camp, a "Leader" and a "Deputy Leader," represent
India at the IMO that is normally held in July in a different member country of IMO each
year. The Leader and Deputy Leader are chosen by the NBHM from among Mathematics
teachers / researchers involved in Olympiad activity. IMO consists of two written tests held
on two days with a gap of at least one day. Each test is of four-and-a-half-hours duration.
Travel to IMO venue and return takes about two weeks. India has been participating in
IMO since 1989. Students of the Indian team who receive gold, silver and bronze medals at
IMO receive a cash prize of Rs. 5,000/-, Rs. 4,000/- and Rs. 3,000/- respectively, from the
NBHM during the following year at a formal ceremony at the end of the Training Camp.
The Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) finances international travel of
the eight-member Indian delegation. connected with international participation. The NBHM
finances the entire in-country programme and takes care of other expenditure
Students aiming for selection for participation in IMO should note that RMO is the first
essential step for the programme. To appear for RMO, students should get in touch with the
RMO co-ordinator of their region well in advance, for enrolment and payment of any fees,
which is nominal.
Syllabus for Mathematics Olympiad
The syllabus for mathematics Olympiad (regional, national and international) is pre-degree
college mathematics. The areas covered are: number systems, arithmetic of integers,
geometry, quadratic equations and expressions, trigonometry, co-ordinate geometry,
systems of linear equations, permutations and combinations, factorisation of polynomials,
inequalities, elementary combinatorics, probability theory and number theory, finite series
and complex numbers and elementary graph theory. The syllabus does not include calculus
and statistics. The typical areas for problems are: number theory, geometry, algebra and
combinatorics. The syllabus is in a sense spread over Class IX to Class XII levels, but the
problems under each topic are of exceptionally high level in difficulty and sophistication.
8
The difficulty level increases from RMO to INMO to IMO. A good idea of what is
expected of students in mathematics Olympiads can be had from the following two books:
Mathematics Olympiad Primer, by V.Krishnamurthy, C.R.Pranesachar,
K.N. Ranganathan and B.J. Venkatachala (Interline Publishing Pvt. Ltd., Bangalore).
Challenge and Thrill of Pre-College Mathematics, by V.Krishnamurthy,
C.R.Pranesachar, K.N.Ranganathan and B.J.Venkatachala (New Age International
Publishers, New Delhi - 1996).
Contact Addresses for Mathematics Olympiad
For information about the RMO, contact the RMO Co-ordinator of your region from the list
given in Annexure VIII, or the OLYMPIAD CELL, Homi Bhabha Centre for Science
Education, V. N. Purav Marg, Anushaktinagar, Mumbai- 400094. The following websites
also provide useful information:
1. www.hbcse.tifr.res.in
2. www.nbhm.dae.gov.in
Nurture Programme
Every year the faculty of the IMO-Training Camp selects about 20 Students of Class XII,
from the Senior Batch who have shown a special interest in Mathematics for participation
in the Nurture Programme of the NBHM. For more information visit the website
www.geocities.com/rbbapat. Any of these students formally pursuing mathematics at the
undergraduate level (B.A. / B. Sc or an integrated M.A. / M.S. course) is entitled to a
scholarship of Rs. 2500/- (Rs. Two Thousand Five Hundred only) per month from the
NBHM.
The nurture programme is of four-year duration. Each batch of Students is assigned to a
faculty of active research mathematicians. The faculty devises a syllabus for the students
for each academic year and also guides them with proper references. The faculty also keeps
in touch with the students through post. At the end of a year the students are called for a
contact programme with the faculty for three to four weeks. During this period the faculty
arranges for lectures on diverse topics and clears specific difficulties of the students. In
addition, they are given tests to assess their progress. Based on the performance of the
student the faculty decides on whether the student should/should not continue in the
programme. The faculty also recommends whether the student can be offered an annual
scholarship of Rs.15,000/-(Rs. Fifteen Thousand Only) in the next year. (This is not
applicable to students pursuing mathematics formally and receiving the monthly
scholarship of Rs. 2,500/-(Rs. Two Thousand Five Hundred only) from the NBHM).
After the completion of four years in the programme the students are awarded certificates.
It is envisaged that the mathematical scholarship of these students will be on par with/
superior to most of M.Sc. (Mathematics) degree holders in the country.
