ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT
Thank you for visiting Mukuba University Department of Mathematics and Statistics website. This site provides information about our undergraduate program, our graduate program, and information about research by our faculty members. Members of our department create, communicate, and apply mathematics of the highest caliber through activities such as internationally recognized research and extensive outreach to schools.
Research interests of our distinguished faculty include algebra, approximation theory, combinatorics, differential equations, dynamical systems, functional analysis, geometry and topology, complex and harmonic analysis, number theory, mathematical modeling, numerical analysis, probability, and scientific computation. Many of our faculty collaborate with researchers in other disciplines, such as computer science, physics, biochemistry, biology, chemistry and food science. The department also supports activities and programs for high school students, for their teachers, and for the general public.
The Department of Mathematics and Statistics aspires to uphold the highest standards of excellence in teaching, research, and service. The department seeks also to excel in fostering collaboration with other disciplines to make significant contributions to knowledge.
- The Department of Mathematics and Statistics aims to advance learning, critical thinking, and research through excellence in teaching and research in mathematics, statistics, and data science to produce highly competent professionals and provide high-quality service to Zambia and beyond.
- The central goal of the Department of Mathematics at Mukuba University is to provide intellectual leadership in the mathematical sciences that is of direct benefit to the country and its citizens.
