& lt 1. A brief history of development
The Mathematics Department of taiyuan normal University was formed by merging the mathematics departments of three original campuses (Shanxi University Teachers College, taiyuan normal College and Shanxi Education College), and the mathematics education resources of the three campuses were optimized.
The undergraduate course was mainly developed from the former Department of Computer and Mathematics of Teachers College of Shanxi University and was founded in 1988. Set up a "Mathematics Education Department" and set up a "Mathematics Education" major, mainly offering undergraduate mathematics and computer application courses. 1994 "computer education" was added to recruit the first computer major students. 1995165438+10. In October, the Education Commission approved the renaming of the Department of Mathematics Education as the Department of Computer and Mathematics Education. In 2000, the mathematics departments of the three campuses merged to form the mathematics department of taiyuan normal University, and set up mathematics and applied mathematics majors. In 2003, the major of information and computing science was added.
In June 2007 165438+ 10, the specialty of mathematics and applied mathematics was awarded as a brand specialty in Shanxi province, and was approved as a national specialty in 2009.
In 2002, Computational Mathematics, supported by Information and Computational Science, was awarded as the key supporting discipline in Shanxi Province. In 2009, the subject of mathematics was approved by the Ministry of Education as "the subject authorized by the main construction unit" (as of 20 1 1, our department has basically completed the construction task)! 20 10 mathematics, as a first-class discipline, was rated as a key construction discipline in Shanxi province.
There are four teaching and research sections in our department: geometric algebra teaching and research section, function theory teaching and research section, mathematics education teaching and research section, computational mathematics and applied mathematics teaching and research section; There are two laboratories: mathematical modeling laboratory and information and scientific computing laboratory; There is also a computational mathematics research institute.
Second, the teaching staff.
The department has 40 full-time teachers and 9 administrators. Among the full-time teachers, there are 5 professors, 0/9 associate professors, 0/4 lecturers and 2 teaching assistants. Among them, there are 6 doctors, 4 doctors under study and 9 masters/kloc-0. There are seven people with letters of appointment.
< third > scientific research achievements.
From 2008 to 20 1 1 year, the department published a total of 46 academic papers 1 year, among which 48 were retrieved by SCI, EI and ISTP, and undertook scientific research projects 17, including 2 projects of the National Natural Fund and1project of the Ministry of Education at the provincial level. Four books have been published.
< fourth >, books and experimental conditions
At present, there are two laboratories, one is a mathematical modeling laboratory, which is mainly used for students' mathematical experiments and scientific research in applied mathematics. The other is the Information and Scientific Computing Laboratory, which is mainly used for students' scientific computing. These two laboratories basically meet the teaching needs of mathematics and applied mathematics and information and computing science.
The reference room of Mathematics Department has tens of thousands of books, long-term subscription to foreign periodicals 16 and long-term purchase of professional databases, which basically meets the needs of teachers and students in this discipline to understand academic trends and carry out research.
In addition, the Institute of Computational Mathematics has a medium-sized Dawning parallel computer that is rarely equipped in domestic universities, which is convenient for the development of various topics.
& ltv >, student profile
20 1 1 There are 16 natural classes in Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, and there are 8 natural classes in Information and Computing Science, with a total of 1055 students.
