INTRODUCTION

Philosophy

Mathematics may be regarded as the language of science; and the broader objective of science must include the goals of social, economic and political modernization. The classical application of the tools of mathematics was in the field of the physical sciences and engineering. With the advent of Operations research in the second half of the 20th Century, the scope and applicability of mathematical methods have greatly expanded to include the environmental, social and life sciences. The undergraduate programme, which we present here, emphasizes the applications of mathematics and statistics to real life problems. Since any planning at the national level must relate to population distribution, the annual rate of population growth, size of population, labour absorptive capacity of the population, etc, our undergraduate programme for the statistics option lays adequate emphasis on demography and bio-statistics.

Objectives: The general aims of the Department are to enable:

  • all students of the University develop clear logical thinking and expression of thought, using the powerful tools of mathematical and statistical modeling as conveyed through our service courses;
  • all students of the Department acquire facility in the applications of mathematics and statistics to real life problems in government, industry education and research;
  • all students gain sufficient ability in, and know how to teach mathematics and/or statistics in the Nation’s educational institutions at the primary, secondary or tertiary level.
