Purpose of class
This course aims to provide an overview of the various fields studied in the Mathematical Sciences Program and to foster an understanding of the fundamental ideas and broad scope of research in the mathematical sciences. It surveys major areas such as algebra, analysis, geometry, probability and statistics, applied mathematics, and information mathematics, introducing their basic concepts and contemporary developments while offering insight into the essence of mathematical thinking. In addition, by examining how the mathematical sciences relate to diverse disciplines—including the natural sciences, engineering, information science, and the social sciences—and how they have developed in both theoretical and applied directions, the course seeks to enhance students’ motivation to pursue specialized subjects and to cultivate their ability to think independently about their future studies and research directions.
Course description
“Mathematical sciences” refers to mathematics in a broad sense, encompassing pure mathematics, applied mathematics, information mathematics, and related fields. It has a long history as an academic discipline, and its achievements have been applied across a wide range of areas, making significant contributions to the development of industry and society.
This course is conducted in an omnibus format, in which several faculty members responsible for the Mathematical Sciences Program deliver lectures in their respective areas of expertise. The topics covered range widely, from abstract concepts to applied subjects. In each class, fundamental themes or representative problems from a particular field are introduced, illustrating how problems are formulated, analyzed, and understood from a mathematical-scientific perspective.
Through this course, students are expected to acquire fundamental mathematical literacy, gain an understanding of current research trends and connections with society, and develop a broad awareness of the diverse research areas related to the mathematical sciences.
Goals and objectives
  1. Be able to explain the outline of each specialized field within the mathematical sciences.
  2. Be able to understand the fundamental process of problem solving in the mathematical sciences.
  3. Be able to understand the academic and societal significance of the mathematical sciences and relate it to one’s own study plan.
