The Department of Mathematics Education aims to cultivate secondary school teachers with wide and in-depth knowledge of mathematics and with the personal qualities of role models from whom students will learn much about virtue, morality, and duty.

The courses offered by the Department are designed to develop skills in teaching secondary school students and an appreciation of mathematics. The subject matter ranges from the theory of mathematics education, modern algebra, analysis, geometry, and topology, to such applied areas of mathematics as discrete mathematics, statistics, practical mathematics and mathematics education technology.

The diversity of the mathematics education program is reflected in the wide variety of career paths followed by its graduates. Most of them go on to jobs as secondary school teachers, and many go to educational businesses, universities, educational research centers or the government, for which their mathematical backgrounds have prepared them.
