The mission of the Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics is to pursue outstanding research and provide high quality instruction in pure and applied mathematics and informatics. It offers programs in Applied Mathematics and Informatics, Applied Informatics, Mathematics Support and Administration of Data Systems, and Teaching. The Faculty has most comprehensive mathematics graduate programs and supports a large number of postdoctoral positions, offering training for careers in the mathematical sciences.

There are 4 departments within the Faculty’s structure

•  Department of Higher Mathematics and Mathematical Modeling

•  Department of Applied Mathematics and Informatics

•  Department of Algebra and Geometry

•  Department of Informatics and Computer Engineering

The Faculty professors and PhD students are actively involved in research that supports the on-going theoretical development of the mathematical and information sciences and promotes the interdisciplinary use of mathematics and IT in science, engineering and other fields.
In 2004 the faculty joined Intel international program “Education for the Future” and in 2010 the Center of Computer Literacy was opened within the framework of Microsoft “Your Course” initiative. The regional center of International Intelligence Club for gifted children “Gluon” was opened at the faculty.
