Mathematics Yeditepe University

Overview

Mathematics is an intellectual field built upon consistent, non-contradictory axioms, where deductions are made through logic, forming a domain with absolute reality. In cases where axioms and findings align with physical reality, we witness the application of mathematics to social and other scientific fields, namely applied mathematics. In this regard, mathematics has been the foundation and indispensable tool for much of modern science and technology. Even in professions not explicitly labeled as mathematicians, there are occupations that require a significant level of mathematical knowledge and expertise. Finance theorists, economists, engineers, physicists, some biologists, chemists, pharmacists, and others fall into this category.

Yeditepe University's department encourages and supports students to complete one or two semesters of their education abroad through Erasmus and other Student Exchange Programs. Foreign students also receive education in our department through exchange programs.
