Mathematics is a fundamental science that studies numbers, space, structure, change, and the relationships among them. It develops the ability of abstract thinking, logical reasoning, and problem solving. Mathematics is not only a theoretical discipline but also a key tool for solving problems encountered in engineering, natural sciences, economics, computer science, and social sciences.
The undergraduate program in Mathematics aims to provide students with a strong background in both theoretical and applied aspects of mathematics. The core areas of the program can be grouped under four main headings: theory, abstraction, modeling, and application.
Theory provides the mathematical and scientific foundation through subjects such as algebra, analysis, geometry, and topology.
Abstraction involves the generalization of mathematical concepts and their transfer to different disciplines.
Modeling focuses on representing complex processes in natural, technological, and social sciences through mathematical methods.
Application deals with solving real-world problems using tools such as statistics, optimization, numerical analysis, and differential equations.
The Mathematics undergraduate curriculum includes courses from basic sciences, information technologies, statistics, applied mathematics, and interdisciplinary fields. In the early years, the program covers fundamental topics such as algebra, analysis, geometry, probability, linear algebra, and differential equations. In advanced years, students deepen their theoretical knowledge through courses like numerical analysis, statistical methods, optimization, mathematical modeling, differential geometry, complex analysis, and abstract algebra.
In addition, elective courses allow students to specialize in areas such as financial mathematics, data science, artificial intelligence, cryptography, or computer-aided computation. In the final year, students prepare a senior project, in which they apply their theoretical knowledge and skills, and further develop their analytical thinking, problem-solving, and scientific presentation abilities.
Graduates of the Mathematics Department are well-equipped to pursue careers in academic research institutions, education, finance and banking, information technology, data analysis, public sector, and industry, as competent and ethically responsible professionals with strong analytical and quantitative skills.
