The School of Mathematics and Statistics of Central South University was formed by the merger of Changsha Railway Institute, Central South University of Technology and Hunan Medical University in May 2002. The college consists of the Department of Basic Mathematics, the Department of Applied Mathematics, the Department of Information and Computing Science, the Department of Statistics, the Teaching and Research Center of Advanced Mathematics, the Institute of Probability and Statistics, the Mathematics Teaching Experiment Center, the Party and Government General Office, the Business Office and the Student Affairs Office.
There are 22 faculty members/kloc-0, including 99 full-time teachers, 32 professors (including 22 doctoral supervisors) and 36 associate professors with corresponding titles. About 70% of the teachers have doctoral degrees. Four people were selected from the Cross-century Excellent Talents Training Plan and the New Century Excellent Talents Support Plan of the Ministry of Education, Hunan Hundred Talents Plan was selected 1 person, distinguished professor and Shenghua Scholars of Central South University were selected 1 person, two people enjoyed special government allowance, and provincial famous teachers were selected 1 person.
The college began to recruit and train undergraduates from 1977, and now has three undergraduate majors: mathematics and applied mathematics, information and computing science and statistics. On 20 12, the course of mathematical science was started. 1978 college began to recruit and train master students, 198 1 began to recruit and train doctoral students. It is the earliest discipline unit in China with a doctorate in mathematics stipulated by the State Council Academic Degrees Committee. There are two first-level discipline doctoral degree authorization points in mathematics and statistics, mathematics postdoctoral research mobile station, mathematics first-level discipline master degree authorization point, and two master degree authorization points in economics and statistics. Among them, the doctoral program in probability theory and mathematical statistics in mathematics is one of the first doctoral programs in China established by the Ministry of Education 198 1. 200 1 probability theory and mathematical statistics were rated as the first batch of national key disciplines, and were listed as the key construction disciplines of Central South University in the Tenth Five-Year Plan and 21/engineering. The first-level discipline of mathematics is the key construction discipline in Hunan Province.
The college insists on scientific research (including basic research and applied development research) as the focus of discipline construction, and has made international leading achievements in several important frontier fields of basic mathematics, and also made important breakthroughs in applied foundation and applied development. The subject direction involves Markov skeleton process and its related fields, applied probability statistics, ordinary differential equations and dynamic systems, scientific calculation, partial differential equations and their applications, group theory and its applications, control theory and its applications, applied statistics and quantitative economics. The discipline group headed by Professor Hou Zhenting, a famous mathematician in China, has made some international leading achievements in the fields of probability theory and mathematical statistics. Professor Hou Zhenting and Professor Zou have successively won the International Davidson Award. The College also won 1 National Natural Science Award, 2 National Science and Technology Progress Awards, 1 National Science and Technology Progress Award, 1 Natural Science Award of the Ministry of Education, 1 Zhao Guang Science and Technology Award of Hunan Province, 2 Hunan Science and Technology Progress Awards, 1 Hunan Natural Science Award and other national awards.
The college has always attached importance to undergraduate teaching and postgraduate education, focusing on strengthening the training of basic mathematics theory and application development, cultivating students' innovative ability, and at the same time focusing on guiding students to learn the basic knowledge of other disciplines, enhancing students' adaptability and expanding their development potential. The college has two national-level excellent courses and won more than one provincial and ministerial excellent teaching achievement award 10. He has made great achievements in previous national undergraduate mathematics competitions and national postgraduate mathematics modeling competitions, ranking among the best. Among thousands of graduates, a group of outstanding scholars who have an important influence in academic circles at home and abroad have emerged, and at the same time, a group of outstanding talents from all walks of life across the country have emerged. Liu Lu, a young scholar, cracked the Sitapan conjecture in his sophomore year.
