Introduction and Specialization
Department of Mathematics at Myongji University was founded in 1979 and started to serve BS Degree. That also has graduate programs for Master Degree and Ph. D. Degree starting from 1984. The Dept. of Mathematics consists of 9 Faculty members and 1 emeritus, 200 undergraduate students and 4 graduate school students. The Mathematics Department establishes and offers courses for all areas of pure mathematics and provides them to the students, and also operates curriculum for the teaching completion course. The Department of Mathematics researches actively algebra, nonlinear analysis topology, differential geometry, probability theory and Fuzzy theory. The Mathematics Department is located on the fifth of the Natural Sciences Building and has a large computer facility. Along with it, the computer facilities are steadily replaced with the latest hardware and software to improve their functions.
Mission Statement
Education and research about Mathematics enables theory and its applications of mathematics which is the foundation of all studies to develop and the department aims to foster talents required in the information society of the 21st century with logical and comprehensive thoughts. Therefore, the department has a basic philosophy to foster practical professionals with international communication skills based on sound values and ethics.
