¢Ã Introduction

The Department of Mathematics was established in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences when the Seoul National University was founded in 1946. In 1975 when the university moved to the present campus, the Kwanak Campus, it was integrated with the Department of Applied Mathematics in the College of Engineering to become the Department of Mathematics in the College of Natural Sciences. At that time, Statistics and Computer Sciences became separate from the Department of Mathematics. Its name was changed to the Department of Mathematical Sciences in 1999.

The Department of Mathematical Sciences aims at education and research in the major areas of mathematics: Algebra, Analysis, Topology, Geometry, and Applied Mathematics. It is in charge of education in basic mathematics for non-math majors as well as in more specialized mathematics for math majors. It has two organizations for mathematical research: the Research Institute of Mathematics and the Global Analysis Research Center. They are centers of active research on diverse areas of mathematics.

In the Department of Mathematical Sciences at present, there are 40 faculty members, including 8 temporary members, 16 post-doctoral researchers, about 136 graduate students, and about 158 undergraduate students.

The Department of Mathematical Sciences has sole occupancy of the Sangsan Mathematical Building for the purpose of mathematical education and research. The building is the home of the Research Institute of Mathematics of Seoul National University, which is Korea's leading Center for research in diverse areas of mathematics education. It was built in 1998 through the donation of an alumnus. It has a Library of Mathematics which contains thousands of mathematical books and more than 200 journals. The library is used not only by faculty and students of the Department of Mathematical Sciences but also by mathematicians from other universities. The computer facilities of the Department of Mathematical Sciences are outstanding. It has a mini-computer system as the main system and every office has one or more high-specification PCs. It also has three computer laboratories solely for the purpose of mathematical research and education.

Alumni of the Department of Mathematical Sciences play an important role in our society. After graduation, more than half of the students enter the graduate school for more specialized mathematical studies and proceed to become experts not only mathematics but also in other academic fields such as statistics, computer sciences, physics, economics, and sociology. Others go on to utilize their mathematical ability in more practical fields such as finance, industrial research laboratories, and educational institutes.

A new era of information technology is dawning in today's world and, in such an environment, the role of advanced mathematics is constantly assuming greater importance. In this brave new world, ever increasing contributions are expected from our graduates.
