Mathematics and Mathematical Science Innovation Course Subjects

The course subjects in Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences Innovation Course (MMSIC) are classified into three categories: core subjects, elective subjects, and practical training subjects. Practical training subjects are course subjects offered only for "Mathematical Human Resources Enhancement Program (International)" of MMSIC.

■Core subjects

Global Lecture on Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences I, II, III, IV”(Graduate School of Science, intensive/first or second semester, 1 credit)

The above four subjects are the core subjects in MMSIC. In 2024 academic year, Subject I (first semester) and Subject II (second semester) will be offered. Each of I, II, III, IV is a box of intensive lectures. Several intensive lectures, called “Global Special Lectures in Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences”, are designated within each subject. By selecting and completing at least one of the intensive lectures in the list, students will receive 1 credit for the relevant subject. In the intensive lectures, leading researchers in various fields of mathematics and mathematical sciences such as algebra, geometry, analysis, and applied mathematics will give an overview and introductory explanation of the field.

【Notes on course registration】
※Graduate students in the Graduate School of Science should register for the subject through KULASIS as a subject in the Graduate School of Science.
※Graduate students not in the Graduate School of Science should register for the subject through KULASIS as a common graduate subject.
※ven if you take multiple intensive lectures from the intensive lecture list of one subject, the number of credits you can obtain is 1 credit per subject.

The above subjects are practical training subjects in "Mathematical Human Resource Enhancement Program (International)" of MMSIC. Please refer to Practical Training Courses for details of the above subjects.

※Practical training subjects are available only to those registered for MMSIC.
※Graduate students in the Graduate School of Science should register for the subject through KULASIS as a subject in the Graduate School of Science.
※ Graduate students not in the Graduate School of Science should register the subject through "Auditing Courses in Other Faculties" at KULASIS. Please note that the registration period for "Auditing Courses in Other Faculties" in the first semester is from April 2 (Tue.) to April 12 (Fri.), which closes earlier than the standard registration deadline.
※Some practical training subjects may have a limit on the number of students who can take the subjects or may require the submission of a prescribed form. Please check the syllabus of each subject and the link to the practical training subjects carefully. Please note that not all students who have registered for a subject may be able to take it. (You may be asked to cancel the registration of the subject by yourself.)
