Department of Mathematics
The Department of Mathematics of the University of Ioannina is the second oldest department at the University. Founded in 1966 in the city of Ioannina, it comprises - along with the Department of Physics and the Department of Chemistry - the School of Sciences. The Department is housed on the northwest side of the academic campus, in the Department of Mathematics Building.
In its 50-year existence, the Department has undergone several stages of development and growth. Today it plays an important role in the continued scientific progress of Ioannina, the region of Epirus and the country. The Department’s research work and presence are internationally recognized. The curriculum, both undergraduate and postgraduate, is characterized by pluralism while concurrently covering all modern disciplines of mathematical science. The Department of Mathematics strives to excel in the scientific training of its students and the honing of their abilities, in order to enable them to build the profile of the mathematician they desire to be.
We wish you a pleasant navigation experience and we are at your disposal in order to provide you with any further information regarding our Department.
