Introduction

Mathematics is the foundation of the science and technology that supports modern society. By learning multifaceted mathematics in a systematic manner, students can acquire capabilites that allow them to flexibly adapt to various career options after graduation, such as continuing studies or finding employment. In addition, an important tradition of the Department of Mathematics is to foster junior-high or high school teachers who possess solid, specialized knowledge on mathematics.
The following are features of the education of the Department of Mathematics.

• Through well-organized curriculum of mathematics education, students effectively acquire the fundamentals of modern mathematics.
• In later grades, students are urged to do mathematics actively in seminar courses.
• Many elective subjects are offered that are connected to latest research works in graduate school.
• Students can also acquire practical knowledge on probability theory, statistics, programming and computational techniques.
