Math Department
Bachelor Program
Mathematics is the basis for successful decision making and problem solving independent of industry. Mathematical models help us analyze information and forecast results in different sectors such as economics, finance, engineering, and medicine. This analysis helps GOV and businesses understand the factors behind important decisions. The Department of Mathematics at King Abdulaziz University (KAU) offers undergraduate programs leading to Bachelor degrees (B.Sc.). This program is designed to expand and consolidate existing mathematics knowledge and to develop skills in mathematics. The diversity of undergraduate courses offered in the department of mathematics gives the student an opportunity to specialize in one of the several fields of pure and applied mathematics. Mathematics Graduates of KAU will gain highly transferable skills in problem solving, data analysis, logistics and logic, probability and variability and mathematical modelling.
