Developing mathematical construction skillsand logical thinking abilities to solve various problems.
In modern society undergoing rapid change and development, the need for human resources who can analyze the essence of phenomena and formulate them mathematically based on mathematical thinking in various fields is extremely high. The Department of Mathematics adopts a learning program that allows students who have mastered the content of mathematics up to high school, are interested in mathematical sciences that have recently expanded in many directions, and who wish to learn not only calculations but also the logical structure of mathematics carefully and cultivate the insight to see through the essence inherent in various phenomena, to acquire the basics of algebra, geometry, and analysis. In addition, to cultivate flexible thinking, we also prepare science and engineering subjects other than mathematics for motivated students.
We adopt a learning program that enables students to acquire a wide range of mathematical knowledge from pure mathematics to applied mathematics, including algebra, geometry, analysis, and statistics, in small classes. Through lectures, exercises, and seminars, students not only learn calculations but also carefully study the logical structure of mathematics and cultivate the insight to see through the essence inherent in various phenomena. In particular, seminar-style classes are taken in all grades, and students learn mathematical thinking through direct dialogue with teachers in small groups while honing their presentation and communication skills. We also prepare science and engineering subjects other than mathematics to cultivate flexible thinking.

Kosuke Miyahara
I am studying mathematical models related to "probability," such as the outcomes of dice from 1 to 6. In particular, I am researching the "Monte Carlo method," which numerically calculates "expected values." I am also challenging applied research to think about various issues that arise when implementing them as programs and how to solve them.
While working on themes that are considered difficult even in university mathematics, I acquired the attitude of carefully reading literature, organizing my thoughts, and searching for clues to solutions. After graduation, I will work as a programmer, so I would like to make use of the "mathematical thinking ability" I acquired at university.
Throughout four years, students systematically learn from basics to specialized content, centered on algebra, geometry, and analysis. All grades have seminar-style classes where students learn mathematical thinking through direct dialogue with teachers in small groups.
