Department
The Department of Mathematics Education provides an environment where students can learn and become competent users of mathematics and mathematical research. Moreover, the department will provide students with various opportunities to study a variety of instructional strategies that facilitate the learning of mathematics for their future students.
Academics
Mathematics education is a discipline in which mathematics is used as a tool to explore various ways to enhance thinking skills such abilities to analyze logically and judge comprehensively that are critical to understanding principles inherent in natural and social phenomena. With the nature of this discipline, the primary departmental function is the preparation of future mathematics teachers who can successfully fulfill the goal of secondary school mathematics education by fostering democratic citizens with intellectual ability and mathematical literacy. Students will learn mathematical knowledge in the areas including geometry, algebra, topology, analysis and statistics, as well as knowledge for teaching mathematics such as curriculum materials, teaching methods, learning theories.
Careers
Most of our graduates are mathematics teachers at middle and high schools around the country including Busan and Kyungnam areas. There are alumni who work as professors of universities. Some are currently studying abroad to become professional researchers. By minoring or double-majoring in other mathematics-related disciplines, students could have careers in the fields of actuarial accounting, applied analysis, computational mathematics, statistics and system analysis for government agencies, business companies or research centers. There are alumni who pursue further study in graduate schools.
