Department of Mathematics
Introduction
The primary objective of the Department of Mathematics is to cultivate human resources who have learned methods for resolving mathematical problems, and who possess the ability to develop new research methods and resolve problems. In addition to fostering people who can contribute to the development of specialized fields as researchers, another aim of the department is to enable students to develop the capacity to be useful in resolving actual problems in the real world through exchanges and integration with other research fields. In addition, the Department of Mathematics also contributes to society by training teachers for secondary education who possess deep, specialized knowledge.
