Mathematics COMSATS University Islamabad

Overview

Mathematics at COMSATS University Islamabad plays a major role in the progress of society and without it; science and technology cannot address the complex issues facing the modern world. The gap between developed and developing countries in mathematics is widening which is a most serious obstacle in the technological development of these countries. In Pakistan, there is a real crisis in the supply of trained manpower in mathematics although there is a huge pool of talented young people. Bold, corrective and innovative steps need to be taken to redress the existing gap in mathematical knowledge for insuring its development in other connected science and technologies as well.
