Math_Science_Park
by way of mathematics offerings supportive of their respective degree programs.

These three main objectives have persisted through the year to thi s day and have aligned the functions of the Department into three main categories:

* General education mathematics
* Mathematics as an academic discipline to be developed
* Service mathematics courses

Accordingly the faculty has been considered as performing or delivering three main services:

* Teaching
* Research
* Extension service

==Academic Programs==
The department offers an undergraduate course, Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, which will allow students to choose an area of specialization. These areas include number theory, operations research, actuarial science, analysis, etc.

The department has a number of graduate programs, namely, Master of Science in Mathematics, Master of Science in Applied Mathematics, Professional Masters in Applied Mathematics (Actuarial Science), Master of Arts in Mathematics, and the Doctor of Philosophy in Mathematics.
