Program Overview

Introduction to the Mathematics Program

The Mathematics Department at the College of Science offers a comprehensive program in mathematics, covering various fields such as algebra, geometry, and analysis. The department has a team of experienced faculty members who specialize in different areas of mathematics.

Program Overview

Upon entering the mathematics program, students will have the opportunity to study and research mathematics at a higher level. They will work under the guidance of experienced faculty members, using specialized textbooks and research papers as references. The program includes seminars, intensive lectures, and graduate-level courses, which will help students acquire advanced knowledge and skills in mathematics.

Program Structure

The program is divided into two main courses: the Master's course and the Doctoral course. The Master's course typically takes two years to complete and requires students to submit a thesis. The Doctoral course is more advanced and requires students to conduct original research and produce a dissertation.

Admission Requirements

The admission requirements for the program include:

• A strong foundation in mathematics
