The Mathematics Department at Petra University was established concurrently with the founding of the university in 1991. However, studies in the department were suspended in 2001. Recognizing the importance and necessity of mathematics, and responding to the pressing need for its study at both the local and regional levels, the department was reopened in 2016 to achieve two key objectives: to supply the job market with qualified personnel in the field of mathematics and to strengthen the foundations of mathematics and physics required for the university’s scientific disciplines. Accordingly, the department offers a Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics, in addition to providing essential mathematics and physics courses required for the disciplines within the Faculties of Architecture and Design, Arts and Sciences, Engineering, Information Technology, Pharmacy, and Medical Sciences.
