Presentation

Mathematics has been a part of human knowledge since its beginnings, and its first rudiments are earlier than writing. Its development is closely linked to human development and progress.

On one hand, Mathematics is a basic and fundamental science required by bost other science and engineering studies which need it for their full development. Any technological advance is based on an adequate use of Mathematics. There has been an exponential increase of interconnections with Economy, Biology, Medicine, Geology, Optics, etc., in which efficient mathematical modelling and algorythm computing are leading to important scientific, technical and social advances. From an applied view, throughout history Mathematics has been analyzing and offering responses to concerns and problems arising from daily real life.

On the other hand, it is a pure science enabling the creation of knowledge from axioms. This knowledge can create structures and theories which add value to knowledge, and on many occasions are applied to fields which are quite distant from their origin in theory.

The efficiency of the Grade in mathematics is based on the harmonious combination of its pure and applied dimensions.
