The School of Mathematics of Guangxi University , originated in 1931 as the Department of Mathematics. Guoping Li (李国平),a famous mathematician and academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Jiehua Mai (麦结华), a national outstanding teacher, used to teach here.
At present,the school comprises the Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, the Department of Computing and Data
Science, and the Division of Public Mathematics. In addition, it has two research institutions: Guangxi Center for MathematicalResearch and University Mathematics Education and Teaching Research Center which are the affiliated units of Guangxi Mathematical
Society.
Basic Mathematics and Applied Mathematics were authorized to grant master's degree in 1984 and 1986, respectively. In 2021, mathe
matics discipline was authorized to grant doctoral degree. In 2023, the college has established post-doctoral research stations.
Until Match 2026, The college of Mathematics and Information Sciences has 97 faculty members, including 81 full-time teachers and 16
teaching assistants and administrators.
The undergraduate programme comprises three degree courses: Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, Information and Computational Science,
and Data Computing and Applications..In addition, there are experimental classes for innovative training such as “Mathematical Innovative Talents”
, “Mathematical Science” and “Information Science”.
For the Graduate education, five second-level disciplines are engaged in graduate student cultivation. They are Pure Mathematics, Applied
Mathematics, Computational Mathematics, Probability Theory and Mathematical Statistics and Operational Research and Cybernetics.
