Overview

The Department of Mathematics at University of Petra was established with the founding of the University in 1991 and was suspended in 2001. Realizing the importance and necessity of Mathematics by the University, the Department was re-established in 2016, with a two-fold aim: to graduate students specialized in Mathematics, and to strengthen the fundamentals of Mathematics and Physics needed by the scientific majors at the University. Consequently, in addition to offering a program leading to a B. Sc. degree in Mathematics, the Department is responsible for the Math. and Physics courses that are required by majors in the Faculties of Architecture and Design, Arts and Sciences, Engineering, Information Technology and Pharmacy and Medical Sciences.
