About

The history of the Faculty of Mathematics dates back to 1321 SH (1361 AH), when mathematics education began within the Faculty of Science alongside physics, chemistry, and biology. In 1348 SH (1389 AH), the Department of Mathematics was separated from the joint Department of Mathematics and Physics and began operating as an independent academic department. Subsequently, based on the 1393 SH (1435–1436 AH) plan for the restructuring and separation of the Faculty of Science, the Department of Mathematics was upgraded to an independent Faculty of Mathematics in 1395 SH (1437–1438 AH). In addition to offering academic programs in mathematics, the Faculty of Mathematics is responsible for teaching mathematics subjects required by other faculties of Kabul University. Given the fundamental and growing role of mathematics in contemporary sciences, technology, data analysis, mathematical modelling, and the solution of complex scientific and applied problems, the importance of mathematics has increased considerably, highlighting the need for further development of the faculty’s academic, teaching, and research capacities.
