The Department was founded in 1976

Summary 

 

The Department of Applied Mathematics was formed at the Faculty of Automation and Computer Engineering in 1976 on the basis of the departments of computer engineering and special courses in higher mathematics. In December, 2019, the Department of Applied Mathematics was renamed as the Department of Applied Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence.

For many years, the Department of AM&AI has been one of the leading departments that train universal highly qualified specialists-programmers of all levels, capable of developing system and applied mathematical and software, as well as training specialists in demand today in the field of designing artificial intelligence systems, and has a serious reputation among applicants and employers in the field of information technology.

The teaching staff of the department includes highly qualified specialists in the field of applied mathematics and computer science. More than 50 employees work at the department, including 11 doctors of sciences and 25 candidates of sciences.
