M.Sc. Mathematics

The Department of Mathematics offers a graduate program that leads to the degree of Master of Science in Mathematics. The program features a thesis and a non-thesis options. The thesis option requires a successful completion of a thesis, and the non-thesis option requires the completion of a project. Both part-time and full-time students can be admitted to the program. Current research interests of the faculty include:

Differential Equations, Numerical Analysis, Integral Transforms, Fractional Calculus, Algebra (Ring Theory); Analysis (Functional Analysis, Operator Theory; Approximation Theory and Fourier Analysis), Geometry (General Topology, Differential Geometry, and Algebraic Topology), Discrete Mathematics, Combinatorics, Dynamical Systems, and Control. 

• Program Vision:

To be recognized as one of the top mathematics department in the region for offering strong M.Sc. in Mathematics, and to be valued internationally as a significant contributor to the continuing graduate education in these fields.

• Program Mission:

To train students to apply and disseminate mathematical knowledge and understanding.

• Program Educational Objectives (PEOs):

1. To provide students with a comprehensive mathematical education at Kuwait University, so that they can either continue to pursue a Ph. D program at top institutions around the world or to pursue Master and Ph. D programs abroad.

2. To prepare students to compete successfully for employment and higher positions in government, industry, and non-profit organizations.

3. To attract students with solid background in mathematics and to engage them in mathematical research.

• Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs):

1. To solve problems in the advanced areas of mathematics including (a) differential equations, (b) numerical analysis, (c) algebra, and (d) real analysis.

2. To identify, formulate, and solve complex mathematical problems by applying advanced mathematics.

3. To communicate mathematical ideas with clarity and coherence, both written and verbally.

4. To perform and disseminate research individually and in collaboration with other researchers.
