About the Department

Mathematics is a field of science based on axioms and logical foundations. This discipline, which does not change according to time, space, or individual, seeks universal truths and makes mathematical inferences. Mathematics is not only a theoretical field but also forms an indispensable foundation for applied sciences. Mathematical knowledge and methods are utilized in many areas such as engineering, economics, finance, and biology. In this respect, mathematics is one of the cornerstones of modern science and technology.

The Mathematics program aims to equip students with both theoretical knowledge and applied mathematics skills across various disciplines. Learning mathematics provides individuals not only with the ability to work with numbers but also with skills in logical thinking, problem-solving, and analysis.

• Course Contents / Course Catalogue

Double Major Program: It provides students with the opportunity to earn an additional undergraduate degree in a field of interest outside their primary area of study. Through this program, students can complete coursework in two distinct departments and graduate with diplomas in both fields, broadening their academic and professional qualifications.

Minor Program: It allows students to take a specified number of courses in an area of interest outside their primary field of study. Upon completing the minor program, students receive an official certificate in that area; however, this does not equate to a second undergraduate diploma.
